Each month, join us in Geneva for a friendly chat over the chosen book. 

We choose from a wide range of genres and topics, both fiction and non-fiction. 

Contact the library for information on the current selection and how to access a copy to read. 

The Last Midwife, by Sandra Dallas, is the February selection. This is a historical fiction novel set in an 1880s Colorado mining town, focusing on Gracy Brookens, the local midwife accused of murdering a baby, forcing her to confront community secrets and the conflict between tradition and progress as she defends herself in a trial. The story explores themes of family, community, and the secrets midwives learn during intimate moments, all while navigating a polarizing trial that pits traditional folk remedies against modern medicine.
