Adult Graphic Novel Club @ Poppets Coffee & Tea

* NEW MEETING LOCATION * We will meet at Poppets Coffee & Tea located at 1006 E. Dorothy Lane Kettering, Ohio 45419

Connect with fellow graphic novel lovers at our monthly book club for adults, where we explore engaging stories told through art and text. While our focus is on graphic novels for adults, we’ll also explore titles from the teen and children’s collections, because great storytelling knows no age limit!

Each month, we’ll read a new graphic novel and meet to discuss themes, artwork, characters, and more. Whether you're a lifelong comics fan or just discovering the format, this club is a welcoming space for all readers.

Copies of the book are available at the Wilmington-Stroop Library for checkout.

Please Note: Graphic novels can include intense or mature themes. We encourage participants to review content warnings ahead of time to ensure a comfortable reading experience.

This month we will be reading Redbone by Christian Staebler.

"Brothers Pat and Lolly Vegas were talented Native American rock musicians that took the 1960s Sunset Strip by storm. They influenced The Doors and jammed with Jimmy Hendrix before he was 'Jimi', and the idea of a band made up of all Native Americans soon followed. Determined to control their creative vision and maintain their cultural identity, they eventually signed a deal with Epic Records in 1969. But as the American Indian Movement gained momentum the band took a stand, choosing pride in their ancestry over continued commercial reward. Created in cooperation with the Vegas family, authors Christian Staebler and Sonia Paoloni with artist Thibault Balahy take painstaking steps to ensure the historical accuracy of this important and often overlooked story of America's past. Part biography and part research journalism, Redbone provides a voice to a people long neglected in American history."--Provided by publisher
