BookTalkers: Black Cake by Charmaine Wilkerson
January 16
6pm
Eleanor Bennet's final bequest, an audio recording and a homemade Caribbean black cake stowed in the freezer, puzzles her grieving children, Benny and Byron. The story that emerges upends everything the estranged brother and sister thought they knew about their family and themselves, and they must set aside their differences to deal with their mother’s death and her hidden past. Novelist Charmaine Wilkerson explores how secrets kept and stories left untold can "matter even more than the things we do say."

Pet of The Week - Leo!
Hello my name is Leo, as you can see I’m 14 years old. At first I may come off as very shy, but I promise I do warm up very quickly and have lots of love to give. I’m in search of a quiet home with low activity for lots of naps. I know I’m much older, but I still have life left in me. Will you be the one to give me a chance ?
