On May 16 from 7-8:30 p.m., the book store will host a regular AfterHours Book Club meeting will discuss The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August by Claire North. This is a unique genre-bending read. Think literary science fiction reminiscent of The Time Traveler’s Wife. Kirkus Review described it as ‘Groundhog day on Red Bull’.
If it’s warm by then the group will meet in the alley.
