Tea & Book Chat: A Virtual Book Discussion Group
Every other Monday at 3 pm on Zoom
Grab a cup of tea (or glass of wine – we won’t judge) and join a come-as-you-are virtual book chat on Zoom with librarian Ben Hanley. We’re planning to talk up one book we’ve each been reading. We’re excited to hear about what you've been reading. Free and open to adults.
Discuss OverDrive's Big Library Read—a hilarious yet insightful memoir titled, Funny You Don't Look Autistic: A Comedian's Guide to Life on the Spectrum by Michael McCreary via Zoom on April 24 at 11 am with librarians Jessica D'Avanza & Lisa Lesinski.
Meet the author Jill Farinelli for a presentation and reading of her book The Palatine Wreck: The Legend of the New England Ghost Ship published by University Press of New England in 2017.
Acclaimed novelist and memoirist Ann Hood joins us at Meraki Stitch Studio in Warren for an evening of food, books and knitting! Space is limited. Free tickets are available via Eventbrite.
A book club for those who like to read cookbooks and enjoy a community meal.

Registration is required. Space is limited. To register, contact Community Engagement Librarian Jessica D’Avanza at jessicad@barringtonlibrary.org or call 401.247.1920 x7.
