SUMMARY:Book Club for Mortals: The Good Life
DESCRIPTION:\nNote: This session will be held in the Quiet Room on the 
 Library's second floor.\n\nWhat makes for a happy\, fulfilling life? 
 Drawing on the Harvard Study of Adult Development\, The Good Life: Lessons 
 from the World's Largest Scientific Study of Happiness offers a clear but 
 surprising answer: strong relationships matter most. Through decades of 
 research and the personal stories of hundreds of participants\, the book 
 shows how our connections with others shape our health\, happiness\, and 
 sense of meaning over a lifetime. We'll explore why relationships are so 
 powerful\, and how it’s never too late to strengthen the ones we have or 
 build new ones.\n\nYou can learn more about the book and the study here\, 
 and watch a TED talk summary here.\n\n\nAbout Book Club for 
 Mortals\n\n\n\nThis is a book club about aging wisely and well. We read a 
 different book each month\, with topics ranging from health and 
 relationships to end-of-life issues\, from the practical to the 
 philosophical\, and from the serious to the lighthearted. We discuss both 
 fiction and nonfiction. This is a space for open\, honest\, and thoughtful 
 conversations about interesting books and ideas. Discussions are led by 
 Mindy Rickard\, our longtime host and advance care planning advisor. The 
 book club meets on the second Thursday of each month.\n\nMore about this 
 program\n\nWe'll need at least two registrations to hold the discussion\, 
 so we strongly encourage you to register. (You can always cancel if you 
 won't be able to join us.)\n\nEach month's book is available for checkout 
 at the first-floor service desk\, and you can search our collection for 
 additional copies and formats (eBook\, audiobook\, large print\, 
 etc.).\n\nOnline registrants should receive a reminder email with the Zoom 
 meeting link approximately one day before the program starts. If you didn't 
 receive the email or are having trouble connecting to the meeting\, please 
 call the Library at 970-586-8116\, and someone will assist you.\n\nRelated
