SUMMARY:Best of the Best Book Club: "Beloved" by Toni Morrison
DESCRIPTION:The Coronado Public Library’s Best of the Best Book Club meets regularly on the fourth Wednesday of each month to discuss books that have won major awards. \nFor our February meeting\, we will discuss the 1988 Pulitzer Prize Winner Beloved by Toni Morrison\, which was named as one of the Great American Novels of the Past 100 Years by The Atlantic.  \nPlace this title on hold via our online catalog\, or check out the e-book through the CloudLibrary app. \nAbout Beloved\nSethe was born a slave and escaped to Ohio\, but eighteen years later she is still not free. Sethe has too many memories of Sweet Home\, the beautiful farm where so many hideous things happened. And Sethe’s new home is haunted by the ghost of her baby\, who died nameless and whose tombstone is engraved with a single word: Beloved.

SUMMARY:Delta Beach Cleanup
DESCRIPTION:Join Emerald Keepers to help the Navy clear trash on Delta Beach. This stretch of beach on the bay side of Silver Strand\, just south of the Naval Amphibious Base is on Navy property. It has been designated as a critical habitat for the western snowy plover and the California least tern. The western snowy plover is listed as threatened and the California least tern is listed as endangered under the Federal Endangered Species Act. \nThis is an opportunity to see a beach normally closed to human activity and take in expansive views of the bay while cleaning up a habitat for vulnerable species and keeping trash out of the San Diego Bay to protect marine animals. \nDirections: From Coronado\, head south on state Route 75 for 2.4 miles. Make a U-turn at the Fiddlers Cove Marina and RV park (Note: There is no sign or traffic light\, but it’s the first left turn lane south of the Naval Amphibious Base). Head back north for about 1 mile and look for the Emerald Keepers flag by the north gate for Delta Beach. Drive carefully across the bike path and park on the sand inside the fence line. \n \nBring buckets\, gloves\, and pickers if you have them. See you there!

SUMMARY:Free film screening of "Three (Extra)Ordinary Women"
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of International Women’s Day (March 8)\, Soroptimist International of Coronado\, in partnership with the Coronado Island Film Festival\, is proud to host a free screening honoring three extraordinary women whose stories reflect courage\, leadership\, and resilience. This gathering aligns with Soroptimist’s mission to support and empower women and girls\, while creating space for meaningful conversation and connection. When women come together\, we lift one another higher — because reaching the top of any mountain is powerful\, but sharing the view\, the journey\, and the lessons along the way is what truly transforms us all. \n \nThrough captivating images of Mount Kilimanjaro and eye-catching animation\, Three (Extra)Ordinary Women tells the personal stories of three women of color who have collectively overcome poverty\, abuse\, systemic racism\, and political occupation through practicing forgiveness\, helping others\, and immersing themselves in nature. As they brave their biggest physical obstacle yet – climbing Mount Kilimanjaro – trekking up Africa’s tallest peak through arctic temperatures and some of the highest altitude on the planet\, they discover they still have emotional hurdles to climb. \nWhile centering women of color in nature (rarely seen as the outdoors have traditionally not been a safe place for POC)\, the film touches on themes of trauma\, self-worth\, sisterhood\, empowerment\, resilience\, and nature as a healing agent that facilitates growth. \nThis film is timely in light of the conflict taking place between Israel and Palestine by exploring the Palestinian occupation and systemic racism in the United States and how both have equally disenfranchised people of color. But the message is not about more divisiveness\, it is about how tough-yet achievable-forgiveness\, healing\, overcoming\, and reconciliation can be. \nRSVP TODAY:  https://coronadofilmfest.com/three-extraordinary-women/ \nPlease note: An RSVP or reservation does not guarantee a seat.  Seating is first come\, first seated when doors open at 1:30 pm. Guests will not be admitted once the screening has begun. \n

SUMMARY:An evening with Cynthia d’Aprix Sweeney
DESCRIPTION:New York Times bestselling author of The Nest\, Cynthia D’Aprix Sweeney will appear in conversation with award-winning writer Madhushree Ghosh to discuss her compelling new novel\, Lake Effect. Hailed by Booklist as “a reverberating\, intergenerational family saga… artful and fresh\,” the novel explores love\, longing\, and the complicated bonds between mothers and daughters as one family reckons with the consequences of a long-buried scandal. A book signing will follow the discussion. \nSweeney’s previous novels\, The Nest and Good Company\, have been widely celebrated\, with The Nest named a best book of the year by People\, The Washington Post\, and NPR\, and currently in development as a limited series with AMC Studios. \nGhosh is the author of the award-winning Khabaar: An Immigrant Journey of Food\, Memory\, and Family and a widely published essayist whose work has appeared in The New York Times\, The Washington Post\, and numerous literary outlets. \nThis event is free and open to the public. Seating is available on a first-come\, first-seated basis. Limited preferred seating is offered with the purchase of Lake Effect through Warwicks Bookstore. \nAbout Lake Effect \nIt’s 1977 and an air of restlessness has settled on the residents of Cambridge Road in Rochester\, New York\, a place long fueled by the booming fortunes of Kodak and Xerox and\, for some\, the mores of the Catholic church. When Nina Larkin is given a copy of The Joy of Sex by her newly divorced friend\, she can no longer dismiss the nearly nonexistent intimacy of her marriage. Just as her oldest child\, Clara\, is falling in love for the first time\, Nina finds herself longing for the forbidden: a midlife awakening. An intoxicating fling with a prominent neighbor brings Nina a freedom she never thought possible — but also risks the reputations of both families and unravels Clara’s world\, just as she stands on the threshold of adulthood. \nYears later\, Clara\, now a successful food stylist in New York City\, has never been able to move past the long-ago scandal. Drawn back home by the pull of a family wedding and wrestling with her own demons\, she makes a pivotal decision that turns her life upside down. Written with Cynthia D’Aprix Sweeney’s signature humor and insight\,  Lake Effect is a wise and probing look at love and desire\, mothers and daughters\, loss and grief\, and what we owe the people we love most.
