October is Gulf Coast Reads. What is that you may ask, well it is an annual regional reading initiative that encourages people across Southeast Texas to read or listen to the same selected book during the month of October. This year’s pick is The Librarians by Sherry Thomas. It is a contemporary workplace mystery set in a small branch library in the suburbs of Austin, Texas, where the quiet routines of four diverse staff members—Hazel, Jonathan, Astrid, and Sophie—are upended when two patrons are found murdered after the library's inaugural murder mystery game night.
