The Millhopper Book Club meets the first T uesday of each month. You do not have to read the book to attend the meeti ng. When we meet\, we start by sharing books we&rsquo\;ve read recently\, then discuss that month&rsquo\;s book.
\nIn December\, the Millhoppe r Book Club will be discussing Remarkably Bright Creat ures by Shelby Van Pelt. "After Tova Sullivan&rsquo\;s husband di ed\, she began working the night shift at the Sowell Bay Aquarium\, moppin g floors and tidying up. Keeping busy has always helped her cope\, which s he&rsquo\;s been doing since her eighteen-year-old son\, Erik\, mysterious ly vanished on a boat in Puget Sound over thirty years ago. Tova becomes a cquainted with curmudgeonly Marcellus\, a giant Pacific octopus living at the aquarium. Marcellus knows more than anyone can imagine but wouldn&rsqu o\;t dream of lifting one of his eight arms for his human captors&mdash\;u ntil he forms a remarkable friendship with Tova. Ever the detective\, Marc ellus deduces what happened the night Tova&rsquo\;s son disappeared. And n ow Marcellus must use every trick his old invertebrate body can muster to unearth the truth for her before it&rsquo\;s too late." Description provid ed by the publisher
