The RCHS Book Club met during lunch to discuss their most recent read "You'll Be The Death of Me" by Karen M. McManus. The RCHS Book Club meets during lunch once a month to discuss a featured book. The books are either teacher/librarian recommended or student selections. The focus is to read a variety of books, often exploring literary works outside the participant’s normal genre.
