The Central Park Book Club meets (almost) every 4th Monday of the month to discuss books across all genres. Join the group and create a space to talk about and enjoy reading!

This month, we will be discussing The Poet X by Elizabeth Acevedo: "The astonishing New York Times-bestselling novel-in-verse by an award-winning slam poet, about an Afro-Latina heroine who tells her story with blazing words and powerful truth." (Because this is written by a slam poet, consider reading via the audiobook narrated by the author herself!)
