About this Event

Lights, Camera, Action, Sisterhood!

​This March, Sisterhood Between the Pages is going back to its roots! We are returning to our B.Y.O. Book format for a special celebration of "Book to Screen" adaptations. This is your chance to be the critic, the director, and the casting agent all at once.

β€‹πŸŒŸ The Theme: Adaptations by Authors of Color

​We are honoring the brilliant stories told by authors of color that have made the leap from the page to the screen.

β€‹πŸŽ­ The Party: The Director’s Cut

​Pick any book by an author of color that has been adapted into a movie or TV show. Your mission is to prepare a mini presentation to share with the group.

  • ​The Pitch: A 4-minute summary of your book.
  • ​The Scene: Highlight your absolute favorite scene (and why it worked!).
  • ​The Remix: Recast at least two roles. Who would you have hired to play these characters?
  • ​The Creativity: Use Google Slides, PowerPoint, a hand-drawn collage, or even a mini graphic novel. Tap into your inner creative!

​The Golden Rule: Keep your presentation under 4 minutes so everyone has time to shine!

β€‹πŸ“ Event Details

  • ​Where: Center City near 30th street Station at a public lounge (Exact address provided upon RSVP).
  • ​When: 1:00 PM – 3:00 PM
  • ​The Requirment: A purchase is required. Please budget approximately $16 for your treats.

β€‹βœ¨ What to expect?

  • β€‹πŸŽ The Goodies: Every attendee receives a bookish-themed goodie bag!
  • β€‹πŸ—£οΈ The Chat: A lively, structured discussion that brings our diverse book choices together.
  • β€‹πŸ’« The Vibe: Unbeatable sisterhood and creative inspiration.

​Put on your director's hat and get reading. See you at the premiere!
