Genre Reading Group meets night!

Dare I say this GRG meeting will be epic? I mean that in a quite literal sense.

Tonight we will be discussing folklore, fable, and mythology and frequently those are composed in the form of epic poetry. Ok! That was a bit of a stretch but if this sounds like a meeting in which you'd like to participate, drop by the Library's conference room at 6:30pm and join the fun! The GRG LoVeS new members and, though I am biased, it's the most fun book group in town!!!

For more information, give me call/email or drop by the meeting tonight!

Happy reading,
Holley
