Johnson County Public Library has some cozy activities lined up this month to celebrate one of the most wonderful times of the year to curl up with a good book.
Franklin college professor David Carlson will speak about his new book, “Enter by the Narrow Gate” at 6 p.m. Dec. 19 at the Clark Pleasant library, 530 Tracy Road, Suite 250, New Whiteland.
The book is the first in a new mystery/thriller series.
Readers can meet the author, hear about the new series and pick up a copy to read — or to give as a Christmas gift.
