Events › Adult Graphic Novel Club

Connect with fellow graphic novel lovers at our monthly book club for adults, where we explore engaging stories told through art and text. While our focus is on graphic novels for adults, we’ll also explore titles from the teen and children’s collections, because great storytelling knows no age limit!

Each month, we’ll read a new graphic novel and meet to discuss themes, artwork, characters, and more. Whether you're a lifelong comics fan or just discovering the format, this club is a welcoming space for all readers.

Copies of the book are available at the Wilmington-Stroop Library for checkout.

Please Note: Graphic novels can include intense or mature themes. We encourage participants to review content warnings ahead of time to ensure a comfortable reading experience.

This month we will be reading Tiger, Tiger by Petra Erika Nordlund.

"Ludovica Bonnaire, a pampered Victorian noble, dreams of adventure. Spurred by her desire to learn more about the world outside her sheltered existence, she steals her brother's identity (along with his ship) and heads out on a journey to find love, excitement, and enough material to write a book about her favorite aquatic creatures, sea sponges. Before long, she realizes life at sea isn't as simple as the romantic novels made it seem...and there are many sinister things lurking in the depths below." -Library Catalog
