May's Middletown Book for Discussion: When We Had Wings (May 22)

​​​

The MUM Book Discussion group will next meet on Friday, May 22.  Our title is When We Had Wings by Ariel Lawhon, Kristina McMorris, and Susan Meissner.  Here is a brief summary:

"[A]n interwoven tale about a trio of World War II nurses stationed in the South Pacific who wage their own battle for freedom and survival." (publisher)

Here is where you can find the book:

• There are no copies available at Miami or OhioLINK, but ---- use Miami University Libraries Search to search both of those catalogs, plus ---- SearchOhio is back, and they have copies! It is now incorporated into the Miami University Libraries Search (if you search in "Everything" from the search menu). Once again we have access to the holdings of many Ohio public libraries in addition to our usual academic options. You may also access SearchOhio through your local public library.
• Amazon has the hardcover, paperback, and Kindle available, and Bookshop.org has links to purchase the title from independent booksellers.

We will meet at 11:30 am on the 22nd both in Room 123 in the Library and on Zoom.  Join the Zoom here! 

Our group is always finding interesting titles to share, and we look forward to the new things you'll bring to the table. In addition to discussing  Murder Takes a Vacation, the group also shared these titles for consideration at their April 24 meeting:
