Walnut Grove Adult Book Group Will Discuss James McBride Novel on November 6

WALNUT GROVE, Calif. — The local library’s adult book group meets Friday, November 6, 2026, from 5 to 6 p.m., with a novel by James McBride on the reading list. Sacramento Public Library says the November discussion will focus on The Heaven & Earth Grocery Store and that new participants are welcome.

Monthly reading and discussion

The library schedules the group on the first Friday of each month, offering residents a structured opportunity to talk about books and connect with neighbors. Its event description welcomes discussion of diverse authors, titles and themes. Readers who have not attended before can review the selection in advance and ask library staff about access to a copy.

The meeting location is the Walnut Grove Library meeting room at 14177 Market Street. For accessibility questions or event changes, the library’s contact number is 916-264-2920. The official event listing does not promise that copies of the novel will be available to everyone on the day, so readers should check the catalog rather than assume availability.

A community meeting point

Local book groups are especially useful in smaller Delta communities, where literary programming may be less frequent than in central Sacramento. Residents can also browse the branch’s lending and digital offerings during normal opening hours, subject to the library’s schedule.

When: Friday, November 6, 5–6 p.m. Where: Walnut Grove Library, 14177 Market St.
