Growing up is hard. It can be even more difficult when you’re dealing with an incredibly traumatic event. If you’re able to make it to becoming an adult, you might have developed a few odd habits as a way to cope. Yet, when you’re called out on them, you see them as “totally normal.” That’s exactly the case in last month’s KELOLAND Living Book Club pick, Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine .

Lucy Steiger, one of the librarians from Siouxland Libraries who chose this book, joined us to not only break down Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine, but to also debut our next KELOLAND Living Book Club pick.
