In Biblio Adventures, Chris celebrated Independent Bookstore Day at The Book Barn in Niantic and at Bank Square Books in Mystic. Emily visited her son in Colorado and had a productive workday at the Carbondale Public Library, one of her favorites. She also discovered a speakeasy-style cocktail bar and restaurant at the Denver airport – it’s in the A gates behind a facade of book-filled bookshelves! The facade holds real books that are a take-one-leave-one library.
This year is the 35th anniversary of the movie adaptation of Fannie Flag’s novel, FRIED GREEN TOMATOES AT THE WHISTLE STOP CAFE, which just so happens to be our second quarter readalong pick. There will be showings at major theater chains this month, so check out your local listings. There are a few spots left for our June 7th discussion of the novel and movie (7 pm ET). Email us – hello@bookcougars.com – if you’d like to participate.
