Each month we’ll highlight a new book, engage in lively discussion, and a choice between daytime or evening meetups!
About this Event

We are thrilled to partner with Colleen Brunetti of Bannon River Books to highlight business and self-development reads in a way that supports LOCAL, INDIE booksellers. We’ll curate from a mix of national best-selling books and small publications with the goal of bringing our community together for lively discussion and connection.

Each month we’ll highlight a new book and we’re excited to give our community a choice between an evening and daytime meet up - or both!

These events are free to participate, but, as a non-profit space we offer a “Pay What You Can” donation option to help support the purchase of goodies. For each publication featured, we’ll provide a link where you can best purchase the printed book or audio book in a way that will also benefit indie booksellers!
