Description

Join us for a lively discussion of The Turtle House, by Amanda Churchill. Moving between a Texas ranching community in the 1990s and pre-World War II Japan and occupied Tokyo, The Turtle House is an emotionally engaging saga about a grandmother and granddaughter who connect over a beloved lost place and the secrets they both carry.  

The Turtle House is the 2025 Community Reads book.  Learn more about this initiative and our annual Book Festival at: www.fortbendlibraries.gov/community-reads-2025. 

There are copies of the book available inside the library. It is also available as an ebook and e-audiobook via Overdrive/Libby, and as an e-audiobook via Hoopla.
