ABILENE - It's almost time for Ike's Virtual Book Club.
The next virtual book club is scheduled for 7 p.m. central time on Tuesday. The program is open to the public at no charge. You can join online or by phone. Please join 10 minutes early so the program may begin on time.
Join this program as if you were meeting your friends in a cozy café or living room with a glass of wine -- even if you have not read the book.
