APCE Book Club – Faith in Fiction
Do you find yourself awash in pages and pages of professional reading but very little reading for your soul, for your self-care, for your well of well being? Then look NO FURTHER! APCE has a Book Club for any and all members who would like to gather to read, explore, and dive into books just for fun!
The group will meet monthly via Zoom with NO requirement to make each and every meeting! Come as you can, enjoy the fellowship of fellow educators and simply find some respite in books!

Mockingbird Summer by Lynda Rutledge
Mockingbird Summer by Lynda Rutledge is a coming-of-age historical fiction novel set in segregated High Cotton, Texas, in the summer of 1964, focusing on the friendship between 13-year-old Corky Corcoran and America, the Haitian daughter of her family’s new housekeeper, as they navigate racial tensions and the impact of To Kill a Mockingbird as both read the novel. The story explores themes of friendship, prejudice, and potential as Corky’s friendship with America, a gifted runner, challenges the town’s color line when she invites America to play on her softball team, sparking conflict and change.
The meeting begins on Zoom at 3:00 PM Eastern, 2:00 PM Central Time, 1:00 PM Mountain, and Noon Pacific Time.
