Book Night: Theo of Golden by Allen Levi
Book Night Conversation: Theo of Golden by Allen Levi
📅 Thursday, September 15
🕕 6:00 PM
📍 Arvada Beer Garden - 9258 58th Pl. Arvada, CO 80003 https://www.arvadabeergarden.com/
Our next Next Chapter Men’s Collective Book Night is Thursday, October 15 at 6:00 PM at Arvada Beer Garden.
After kicking off our Book Night series with Die With Zero, we’re switching things up this month with a great work of fiction.
### This Month’s Book: Theo of Golden
By Allen Levi
Theo of Golden is a warm, thought-provoking novel about a mysterious older man who arrives in the small Southern town of Golden and quietly begins changing the lives of the people he encounters.
At its heart, the book explores friendship, generosity, purpose, community, kindness, and the impact we can have on the people around us—themes that should make for a great Next Chapter conversation.
Don't have time to read the whole book? Come anyway. Use ChatGPT to get a summary of the book and its major themes beforehand so you can still join in the conversation. The point of Book Night isn't to test whether everyone finished the book—it's to use the book as a starting point for good conversation and getting to know each other better.
