Event Series: Tell a Yarn...

Tell a Yarn...

Wed, September 9 @ 1:30 pm - 3:00 pm EDT
What could be better than working on your favorite knitting or crocheting project while someone reads out loud to you?
Join our yarn circle/adult story time for your dose of productive relaxation! Starting Wednesday, September 9, we'll be reading Peck & Peck by Bonny Garmus (author of Lessons in Chemistry) about a young man who lands a job at a prestigious, dysfunctional New York poetry journal run by feuding twin brothers.  The best part is that our yarn circlers get a chance to listen to the book before it's published in September!
Kristin Hannah enthuses:  "I'm absolutely over the moon about Bonnie Garmus' new novel. It is EXACTLY what I needed to read right now. Charming, uplifting, soulful, and original, this is the perfect successor to Lessons in Chemistry. If you loved Elizabeth Zott, you will adore Batter Gray. Book clubs will adore this novel. I loved it."
Bring your yarn projects to the Library on Wednesday afternoons from 1:30 to 3 pm in the Sheffer Gallery. We'll read aloud while you work on your project. Or you can just listen — no working necessary! No registration is required, and no yarn instruction provided.
