Monday Morning Book Club: My Beloved World

Join us for a discussion of My Beloved World by Sonia Sotomayor, a candid and inspiring memoir by the first Hispanic and third woman appointed to the United States Supreme Court. Justice Sotomayor traces her journey from a Bronx housing project to the nation’s highest court, reflecting on a childhood shaped by loss, resilience, and a fierce determination to succeed. Diagnosed with juvenile diabetes at a young age, she learned early the importance of self-reliance, discipline, and ambition. Along the way, Sotomayor explores the mentors, friendships, and life experiences that guided her path through Princeton, Yale Law School, and a distinguished legal career. Both deeply personal and broadly resonant, the memoir offers a powerful meditation on perseverance, empathy, and the promise of opportunity. Copies are available at the first-floor circulation desk. New members are always welcome!
