The evening will begin with a brief group discussion of what we are currently reading and to swap recommendations. Then participants will break up to do what they love: READ! You can curl up in the Butternut Room, find a chair in the Solarium or read in front of a fire in the Gallery. If the weather is nice, feel free to bring a lawn chair or blanket and read outside!
