Join Clint and Brian C. the last Sunday of every month as we use wonderful books to travel the world. We're actually taking a break from a specific region at the moment, and instead choosing to read books on our "to read" list. This month we are reading The Tiger's Wife by Tea Obreht. *Due to the Christmas holiday, we have 2 meeting dates in January. The first date is 1/1, the second is 1/29. | 30
Start: 7:00 pm
Perhaps more aptly named the "sometimes new/always noteworthy" book club, here is a place to discover recent gems and to revisit old favorites. Come join Kester and Jamie the last Monday of every month at 7PM. This month's book is A Prayer for Owen Meany by John Irving.
