we've had some weird things happen with the location in the Meetup app. the right address is 2471 AW Grimes, very close to 45 in a small shopping center. it is NOT in downtown Round Rock Hey there F$#&ing friends! Love music? Love winning? Then Music Bingo is your jam! 🎵 Win awesome prizes, enjoy great drinks, and vibe to the music! Let’s play! 🎸🍻 No bingo card required, you play on your phone. How it works: they play a short clip of a song, and then regardless of whether you know it or not, they'll give you the answer so you can mark it on your phone..if you happen to know it and can mark your board a little faster, yell BINGO! There's a theme for each round, it's good times and good music. 🎸🍻 If you're not into the bingo scene, there's a ton of games and a full bar. The food is also pretty good.

Join us for lunch/tea at Asterisk Supper Club to discuss our May book "Under the Oak Tree" by Suji Kim Lady Maximilian is the daughter of the powerful Duke Croyso, but she is rarely allowed outside her family’s sprawling castle for fear that her stutter will tarnish their noble name. When she is forced to marry Sir Riftan, a lowborn knight caught in one of her father’s schemes, Maxi doesn’t dare hope for happiness, let alone love. Her stumbling communication and his gruff manner sour their relationship before it can begin, and Riftan leaves without a word the morning after their vows are exchanged. Now, three years after their disastrous wedding night, Riftan has returned as a war hero. To Maxi’s surprise, despite rumors that he was offered marriage to Princess Agnes, a beautiful and renowned sorceress, Riftan still wants Maxi for his wife. And when he comes to claim her, his longing becomes a desire that bewilders Maxi, even as she is overcome by the scorching heat that Riftan’s presence ignites within her. As she learns to navigate the intricacies of her new life, Maxi will find herself and her courage, and discover that she is anything but powerless.
