No One Scorns the Wicked

Sunshine after long grey days is a motivator. After a flurry of activities this morning, I pause to think about books. In fact, more so than books, I am thinking of events. Local libraries are putting together some really neat gatherings in the near future. A few highlights:

• The Main Library for GBC is hosting a Salon @ 615 series which includes Erik Larson and Ann Patchette [separate events of course]
• The Rocket City Library is launching a community read of Wicked City by Ace Atkins. The kick-off events include the "Wicked City" porter brewed by local Straight to Ale [these engineers do have a sense of humor]

And as weather turns warmer and you wish to move away from your heavier reads, consider Scandalous Women: The Lives and Loves of History's Most Notorious Women by Elizabeth Kerri Mahon. Carpe diem.
