That was the scene at Books and Bars in Minneapolis Tuesday night. Books and Bars is a unique book club with lively discussion and good food and drink. As MPLS. ST. PAUL magazine said, “For those who take their books straight up – not off Oprah’s list – Books & Bars is the cure. Bookended by social hours, it’s a perfect opportunity to meet hip literary types – and the liquid courage doesn’t hurt.”
According to my friend who read Miranda July’s No One Belongs Here More Than You and attended this month’s meeting, it was fun. I love the idea of talking about books with total strangers and (maybe) making friends. Books and Bars, come to New York City!
