The book to be discussed is "Mrs. Quinn's Rise to Fame" by Olivia Ford. Adults are invited to this monthly book discussion program, which is free and open to everyone!
Mrs. Quinn's Rise to Fame by Olivia Ford is available as a print book, an e-book, a downloadable audiobook, and as a large print book in the Library's collection.
"After fifty-nine years of marriage, as her husband Bernard's health declines, and her friends' lives become focused on their grandchildren--Jenny decides she wants a little something for herself. So she secretly applies to be a contestant on the prime-time TV show Britain Bakes. Whisked into an unfamiliar world of cameras and timed challenges, Jenny delights in a new-found independence. But that independence, and the stress of the competition, starts to unearth memories buried decades ago...With her baking star rising, Jenny struggles to keep a lid on that first secret--a long-concealed deceit that threatens to shatter the very foundations of her marriage."

About the branch
The Wayne Branch Library first opened in December of 1969 in a shopping center located at 7341 Rockville Road. Due to high demand, the storefront space was enlarged in 1973, but the need for more space was evident. A permanent 13,500 square foot location opened in 1984, and the branch remains in that same building today. The Wayne Branch underwent a $1.1 million renovation in 2020 to add more seating and activity space, study rooms, and a quiet reading area, but still features the split design of a separate children's and adult wing.
