Tombs & Tomes Book Club
This month’s pick
A Librarian’s Investigation into the Science and History of Books Bound in Human Skin
Tombs and Tomes is Congressional Cemetery’s book club.
We meet every other month on the second Tuesday in our historic Chapel, and we discuss primarily non-fiction books.
Our book selections have no rhyme and reason; however, our choices tend to stray towards the macabre, as is natural for a cemetery book club. Our very first meeting was in September 2013 and we chose to read Stiff, by Mary Roach.
It’s free to join, and mostly free to attend. For each in-person meeting, we simply ask that you bring either a $5 donation or a bit of food or wine to share with the group. Extra points for brownies!
Thanks to our 2024 sponsors
