The HP Book Club will meet on Friday, February 20, at 2:30 p.m. in Activity Room C to discuss My Friends by Fredrik Backman. The novel tells a moving tale of four teenagers whose friendship creates a bond so powerful that it changes a stranger’s life 25 years later. One reviewer described the book as “a tender heartwarming novel exploring the challenges and joys of life itself, of loving and trusting others, of unexpected change and unexpected hope.” Carol Stringer will lead the discussion.
Club meetings are open to all residents who read the book. If you wish to be added to the HP Book Club mailing list, please email me.
Of special interest to book lovers is the upcoming Southwest Florida Reading Festival on Saturday, March 7, 2026, at the Fort Myers Regional Library. Kristen Harmel and Wally Lamb are two of the many authors expected to attend. For more information, consult readfest.org.
