Just Mercy book cover

In April, the Book Smart Book Club will meet on the 4th to discuss Just Mercy: A Story of Justice and Redemption by Bryan Stevenson, call number 353.48092 St.

Bryan Stevenson was a young lawyer when he founded the Equal Justice Initiative, a legal practice dedicated to defending those most desperate and in need. Just Mercy is an unforgettable account of a gifted young lawyer’s coming of age and a moving narrative of the lives he has defended and changed through compassion and true justice.

The Book Smart Book Club meets on the first Wednesday of each month from 2:00 pm to 3:00 pm in the Language, Literature and History Section of the Hawaii State Library. New members are always welcome. No registration necessary. Inquiries about the Book Club can be directed to booksmartbookclub@gmail.com or 808-586-3499.
