The Newnan Carnegie Library Foundation is proud to welcome bestselling author Katherine Reay back to Newnan to discuss her new book, The Undercover Bookshop on Wednesday, October 21st at 11:00 am. During the winter of 1950 in the small Cotswold village of Great Rollright, amateur sleuth Gemma Brown starts to suspect that the town’s best baker, Ursula Beurton, is a Soviet spy, tumbling her headlong into a dangerous game of cat-and-mouse that ends with a decision that will lead her to the Undercover Bookshop and change her life forever.
Books will be available for purchase by Bookmiser. The book talk will be followed by a book signing. Registration is required on Eventbrite.

The Newnan Carnegie Library is the oldest surviving Carnegie Library in Georgia and the first of two designed by J.W. Golucke. Golucke was not trained as an architect, and the library reflects his personal design idiosyncrasies. Today the library is run by the City of Newnan and serves a population of over 40,000 with traditional library services. It is considered a cornerstone of Historic Downtown Newnan. Discover the incredible history of Georgia’s Carnegie Libraries. Visit and collect stamps at each active Carnegie library. Visit https://georgialibraries.org/carnegie/ for more information.

Saturday at Southern LitFest 2026 kicked off with an amazing program with original works by Newnan High School Theatre Student, exploring the power of the press in Extra! Extra! Read All About It!

Thank you so much to Newnan High School Theatre for a fantastic morning. And thank you to Truett's Chick-fil-A - Newnan for providing Chick-fil-A meals to all children in attendance.
