The book club launched on June 25, 2019, with Susan Orlean, bestselling author of “The Library Book,” about the mysterious fire that devastated L.A.’s Central Library. The most recent book club selection was “The Compton Cowboys” by Walter Thompson-Hernández, who joined Times readers for a June 24 virtual meetup.
