- October's Novel: Bury Our Bones In The Midnight Soil By V.E. SchwabBarquentine Brewing Co., Edgewater , CO
Please join us for a discussion of October's novel: Bury Our Bones In The Midnight Soil by V.E. Schwab.
Our meetings start loosely as people come in, get settled, and go to acquire what food and beverages they like. After everyone arrives or about a half hour has passed, we officially start the book discussion. Towards the end we set plans for the book poll and future meetings.
This meeting is at Barquentine Brewing Company. The brewery offers a variety of drinks and is part of Edgewater Public Market which has a wide range of small restaurants from which orders can be carried in. Please purchase what you can from Barquentine to be courteous to the company hosting us.
