The Morning Book Club is tackling Kaliane Bradley’s “The Ministry of Time” on Thursday, June 11, 2026, from 10 to 11 a.m. in the Lower Level Meeting Room at Morristown and Morris Township Library (1 Miller Rd). The novel follows a civil servant recruited by a government ministry testing whether time travel works, not just on the physics side but on the human side, complete with actual historical figures as housemates. It’s been called a genre-bending page-turner, which is a fine thing to bring to a Tuesday morning. The club is open to everyone, Morris Township resident or not, and you’re welcome even if you only made it halfway through. Copies are held at the main circulation desk. Questions?
