Travel Book Club: What I Was Doing While You Were Breeding
Details
Join us for an informal discussion about What I Was Doing While You Were Breeding. Doesn't that title pique your interest? :-)
This new book by Kristen Newman is a humorous memoir that has received rave reviews!
You can get the book at Powell's or your favorite book store.
Here's more about the book:
Kristin Newman spent much of her twenties and thirties buying dresses to wear to her friends’ weddings and baby showers. Not ready to settle down and in need of an escape from her fast-paced job as a sitcom writer, Kristin instead traveled the world, often alone, for several weeks each year. In addition to falling madly in love with the planet, Kristin fell for many attractive locals, men who could provide the emotional connection she wanted without costing her the freedom she desperately needed.
Kristin introduces readers to the Israeli bartenders, Finnish poker players, sexy Bedouins, and Argentinean priests who helped her transform into “Kristin-Adjacent” on the road–a slower, softer, and, yes, sluttier version of herself at home. Equal parts laugh-out-loud storytelling, candid reflection, and wanderlust-inspiring travel tales, What I Was Doing While You Were Breeding is a compelling debut that will have readers rushing to renew their passports.
KRISTIN NEWMAN is a travel writer and television writer/producer who has worked in Hollywood for over twenty years. She has written on shows including That ’70s Show, Chuck, How I Met Your Mother, The Neighbors, The Real O’Neals, The Muppets, Galavant, and For the People. Her work has been published in the L.A. Times, Time Magazine, and numerous travel publications.
How the club works:
We meet online via Zoom to chat about our monthly book pick. I have a list of questions for our group, and you can bring questions and comments too if you have some.
Grab your drink of choice and join us for an hour to talk story and travel. We may not be able to travel far these days, but we can travel vicariously via literature!
