X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>This meeting will be held IN PERSON and ON
  ZOOM. Those unable to attend in person\, can join us via Zoom simultaneou
 sly.</p>\n<p>Join us to discuss <strong><em>The Music of Bees&nbsp\;</em>b
 y Eileen Garvin</strong>:</p>\n<p style="padding-left: 30px\; text-align: 
 justify\;">"Forty-four-year-old Alice Holtzman is stuck in a dead-end job\
 , bereft of family\, and now reeling from the unexpected death of her husb
 and. Alice has begun having panic attacks whenever she thinks about how he
 r life hasn't turned out the way she dreamed. Even the beloved honeybees s
 he raises in her spare time aren't helping her feel better these days.</p>
 \n<p style="padding-left: 30px\; text-align: justify\;">In the grip of a p
 anic attack\, she nearly collides with Jake--a troubled\, paraplegic teena
 ger with the tallest mohawk in Hood River County&mdash\;while carrying 120
 \,000 honeybees in the back of her pickup truck. Charmed by Jake's sincere
  interest in her bees and seeking to rescue him from his toxic home life\,
  Alice surprises herself by inviting Jake to her farm.</p>\n<p style="padd
 ing-left: 30px\; text-align: justify\;">And then there's Harry\, a twenty-
 four-year-old with debilitating social anxiety who is desperate for work. 
 When he applies to Alice's ad for part-time farm help\, he's shocked to fi
 nd himself hired.</p>\n<p style="padding-left: 30px\; text-align: justify\
 ;">As an unexpected friendship blossoms among Alice\, Jake\, and Harry\, a
  nefarious pesticide company moves to town\, threatening the local honeybe
 e population and illuminating deep-seated corruption in the community. The
  unlikely trio must unite for the sake of the bees&mdash\;and in the proce
 ss\, they just might forge a new future for themselves."</p>\n<p><br /><st
