Kitsap Regional Library has just begun a new book discussion series aimed at serving people who want to do more than just read and discuss. This book group is about action.

“Books to Action” will meet the fourth Saturday of each month at Kitsap Regional Library in downtown Bremerton.

It seeks to connect a group of readers who are interested in giving back to the community by participating in service projects based on the books they read.

“We want to combine reading, compassion and community service in this program,” said librarian Michelle Will. On April 25, the group will discuss “Animal, Vegetable, Miracle: A Year of Food Life,” by Barbara Kingsolver. Speaker Karole Johnson, executive director of Seeds of Grace, will discuss sustainable and organic gardening. The group will be tasked with creating a community garden someplace in Bremerton.
