Relax and Read: Home

Program Overview

The Relax and Read book club was introduced on the HSC campus in March 2016 as an opportunity for students, staff, and faculty to discuss books that are for leisure reading.

The Three Steps to Participating:

1. Sign up via email at: bhslnpm@ouhsc.edu or in person at the 3rd-floor service desk of the Library, Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. - 5 p.m.
   • You must present your OUHSC ID to sign-up and receive one of the 60 available books, which often go very quickly
   • To be equitable to the entire campus community we reserve the option to limit the number of books distributed to a single department.
2. Join us for a book discussion each semester in person or via Zoom. Dates, times, location, and links will be emailed to all members prior to the meeting.
   • Contact Payton Patterson by e-mail or phone: 271-2285 ext. 48725 to inquire about receiving the book through interagency mail.

Fall Relax and Read Book Club 

France, 1714-In a moment of desperation, a young woman makes a Faustian bargain to live forever and is cursed to be forgotten by everyone she meets. Thus begins the extraordinary life of Addie LaRue, and a dazzling adventure that will play out across centuries and continents, across history and art, as a young woman learns how far she will go to leave her mark on the world. But everything changes when, after nearly 300 years, Addie stumbles across a young man in a hidden bookstore and he remembers her name.
