The Knoxville Public Library will hold an All Iowa Reads book discussion on Saturday.

The title of the book is Distant Sons by Tim Johnston and the event will start at noon. The discussion will be led by Knoxville’s Adult Services Librarian Cari Meissner. This book is a crime novel about friendship, love, and hard work, and about how the most random intersection of lives can have consequences. Established in 2003, the purpose of All Iowa Reads is to foster a sense of unity through reading. Iowans are encouraged to come together in their communities to read and talk about a single book title in the same calendar year. All Iowa Reads consists of three programs, each with one title chosen per year: adults, teens ages 12-18, and kids ages 8-12.
