Thanks for a Great One Book!

Thanks to everyone who participated in this year's One Book, One Mesa County! We had a great turnout for the last event on March 1. Our panel discussion went well as both the audience and panel brought up great questions about this year's One Book selection, "The God of Animals."

Featured author Aryn Kyle gave a moving speech as she read from the last chapter of her book. Again, questions from the audience were great and Kyle was very open about answering them.
