Norcross Branch

Norcross Meeting Room

Dreaming of being OOO this summer? Join our Out of Office Romance Book Club for summer vacations through books.

Maya Killgore is twenty-three and still in the process of figuring out her life. Conor Harkness is thirty-eight, and Maya cannot stop thinking about him. It's such a cliche?, it almost makes her heart implode: older man and younger woman; successful biotech guy and struggling grad student; brother's best friend and the girl he never even knew existed. As Conor loves to remind her, the power dynamic is too imbalanced. Any relationship between them would be problematic in too many ways to count, and Maya should just get over him. After all, he has made it clear that he wants her gone from his life. But not everything is as it seems--and cliche's sometimes become plot twists.

Read the book and chat with us!

Out of Office Romance Book Club is a summer book club focusing on books based during the summer where travel is involved while you are “out of office.” 

Come to enjoy the atmosphere and in depth discussions about good books!

Registration is recommended.
