X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>Join Allison Grubbs\, Director of the Brow
 ard County Libraries\, in a dynamic and engaging discussion on <em>The Boo
 k Woman of Troublesome Creek</em> by Kim Michele Richardson.&nbsp\;</p>\n<
 p>The hardscrabble folks of Troublesome Creek have to scrap for everything
 &mdash\;everything except books\, that is. Thanks to Roosevelt's Kentucky 
 Pack Horse Library Project\, Troublesome's got its very own traveling libr
 arian\, Cussy Mary Carter.</p>\n<p>Cussy's not only a book woman\, however
 \, she's also the last of her kind\, her skin a shade of blue unlike most 
 anyone else. Not everyone is keen on Cussy's family or the Library Project
 \, and a Blue is often blamed for any whiff of trouble. If Cussy wants to 
 bring the joy of books to the hill folks\, she's going to have to confront
  prejudice as old as the Appalachias and suspicion as deep as the holler.<
 /p>\n<p>Inspired by the true blue-skinned people of Kentucky and the brave
  and dedicated Kentucky Pack Horse library service of the 1930s\,&nbsp\;Th
 e Book Woman of Troublesome Creek&nbsp\;is a story of raw courage\, fierce
  strength\, and one woman's belief that books can carry us anywhere&mdash\
 ;even back home.</p>\n<p>Get a copy of the book here:<a href="https://brow
