So it s a relief when his skill on the basketball court earns him a scholarship to college, far away from his childhood home. He soon meets Julia Padavano, a spirited and ambitious young woman who surprises William with her appreciation of his quiet steadiness. With Julia comes her family; she is inseparable from her three younger sisters: Sylvie, the dreamer, is happiest with her nose in a book and imagines a future different from the expected path of wife and mother; Cecelia, the family s artist; and Emeline, who patiently takes care of all of them. Happily, the Padavanos fold Julia s new boyfriend into their loving, chaotic household. But then darkness from William s past surfaces, jeopardizing not only Julia s carefully orchestrated plans for their future, but the sisters unshakeable loyalty to one another. The result is a catastrophic family rift that changes their lives for generations. Will the loyalty that once rooted them be strong enough to draw them back together when it matters most? https://www.midlibrary.org/EventDetail?ID=25739 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:26114 SUMMARY:Techno Minutes DTSTAMP:20260718T122644Z DTSTART:20260723T190000Z DTEND:20260723T210000Z LOCATION:Middleton Public Library - Lower Level DESCRIPTION: Sign up for these 30 minute or less computer classes by calling 827 7403, stopping by the library s Reference Desk, or emailing info@midlibrary.org.

As one of the few witches in Britain, Mika Moon knows she has to hide her magic, keep her head down, and stay away from other witches so their powers don t mingle and draw attention. And as an orphan who lost her parents at a young age and was raised by strangers, she s used to being alone and she follows the rules... with one exception: an online account, where she posts videos pretending to be a witch. She thinks no one will take it seriously. But someone does. An unexpected message arrives, begging her to travel to the remote and mysterious Nowhere House to teach three young witches how to control their magic. It breaks all of the rules, but Mika goes anyway, and is immediately tangled up in the lives and secrets of not only her three charges, but also an absent archaeologist, a retired actor, two long suffering caretakers, and... Jamie. The handsome and prickly librarian of Nowhere House would do anything to protect the children, and as far as he s concerned, a stranger like Mika is a threat. An irritatingly appealing threat. As Mika begins to find her place at Nowhere House, the thought of belonging somewhere begins to feel like a real possibility. But magic isn t the only danger in the world, and when a threat comes knocking at their door, Mika will need to decide whether to risk everything to protect a found family she didn t know she was looking for... https://www.midlibrary.org/EventDetail?ID=26197 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:26092 SUMMARY:Techno Minutes DTSTAMP:20260718T122644Z DTSTART:20260922T150000Z DTEND:20260922T170000Z LOCATION:Middleton Public Library - Lower Level DESCRIPTION: Sign up for these 30 minute or less computer classes by calling 827 7403, stopping by the library s Reference Desk, or emailing info@midlibrary.org.
