The Central Park Book Club meets (almost) every 4th Monday of the month to discuss books across all genres. Join the group and create a space to talk about and enjoy reading!

This month, we will be discussing In the Shadow of the Mountain by Silvia Vasquez-Lavado: "Vasquez-Lavado now lives In the Shadow of the Mountain, but once she was a Silicon Valley star wrestling with deep-seated personal problems (e.g., childhood abuse, having to deny her sexuality to her family) when she decided to turn around her life through mountain climbing; eventually, she took a team of young women survivors up Mount Everest."
