The Ocean County Library will hold a virtual talk with acclaimed author Kate Quinn about her latest work, The Astral Library, on Thursday, March 12 at 7 p.m.
The Astral Library poses the question: Have you ever wished you could live inside a book? Alexandria “Alix” Watson has learned one lesson from her barren childhood in the foster-care system: Unlike people, books will never let you down. At the Astral Library, books are not just objects, but doors to new worlds, new lives and new futures.
Quinn is a New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of historical fiction.
