March Reader Spotlight – Barbara Gurley

Welcome to the monthly installment of Reader Spotlight – in which we ask a library patron to tell us about their favorite books. During the month of March, we feature Barbara Gurley, the executive director of the Lopez Island Family Resource Center. She shares a selection of favorites with us: A is for Activist and Counting on Community by Innosanto Nagara, Mountains Beyond Mountains by Tracy Kidder, Persepolis by Marjane Satrapi, Walking with the Wind by John Lewis and Michael D’Orso, Working by Studs Terkel, Daring Greatly by Brené Brown, So You Want to Talk About Race by Ijeoma Olua, and Beneath a Scarlet Sky by Mark Sullivan (bonus books that did not make the poster: We Were the Lucky Ones by Georgia Hunter and Black Like Me by John Howard Griffin). Stop by the Reader Spotlight display in the library to borrow one of Barbara’s favorites.
