Book Swap

Our first reading will be The Hour of the Star (1977), a short novel by Brazilian writer Clarice Lispector. With just 96 pages, it is an intense and powerful book by one of Brazil’s most beloved authors. The novel follows Macabéa, a young woman living on the margins of society in Rio de Janeiro. Through an unusual and sometimes meta narrative voice, Lispector reflects on language, authorship, poverty, invisibility, and what it means to tell someone else’s story. The discussion will be held in English, but you’re welcome to read the book in any language. We’ll meet at Backstory Bookshop (downstairs), and after the discussion we’ll continue the evening with a casual get-together over coffee or drinks nearby, for anyone who feels like staying. **[Please RSVP for the meeting here](https://www.backstorybookshop.com/event-details-registration/reading-women-book-club)!** New readers are welcome!

A casual (but coordinated) coffee break to meet new friends, take a Zoom break, and get your AM caffeine fix. Stop by for a few minutes or stay the whole time. Bring a friend or wander in solo. Come for the coffee and company, or just bring a book to read while surrounded by other in-real-life, community-seeking humans. Come by every Friday, or just when you happen to be in town. Make it whatever you need it to be that week. It's not an \*event\* per se, but we hope these Friday meet-ups can become a fixture of the bookshop! Gathering spot will be in the downstairs area of the bookshop (near the Community Library). Coffee and tea are 1.50€ and can be purchased at the cash register upstairs. Find more info on our Instagram (@backstorybookshop) or website (www.backstorybookshop.com).

¿De verdad las mujeres "normales" ya no lloramos y facturamos? 💸 ¿Te has puesto a pensar en la escritura como privilegio? Si esto es así: ¿Dónde están las que escriben a pesar de no tener plata? 🤔 Con este club queremos hablar de algo que nos obsesiona: la literatura y el dinero. Cómo el capitalismo monetiza nuestro tiempo y nuestro deseo (Cristina Rivera Garza Dixit) y qué estrategias tenemos las que con grandes esfuerzos llegamos a fin de mes pero queremos reunirnos para hablar de libros o para sentarnos a escribir. 🔥 Esta en nuestra primera propuesta, 6 libros, 6 autoras que piensan la relación entre la escritura y el privilegio, entre la escritura y el zulo, lo popular, aquellas que no se avergüenzan de decir que no vienen de un "barrio bien", que su escritura es una resistencia y su migración no es un cuento de hadas. ❤️‍🔥 Hasta que la escritura deje de ser un privilegio, hasta que la lectura sea un derecho para todxs, hasta que tengamos tiempo y deseo para lo que nos hace latir el corazón. 💜 Gratuito con la compra del libro. Valor sin libro: 5€ Última fecha de sesión: por definir

This Month's Book: *On A Sunbeam* by Tillie Walden Join us for discussion at the Granville Public Library from 6 to 7pm. Follow us on Instagram: @granvillepridebookclub

**Our April novel is: *The Hong Kong Widow* by Kristen Loesch** **This month’s novel blends gothic atmosphere with historical fiction and chilling horror, set against the haunting backdrop of China. The book is 368 pages in print and 10 hours and 42 minutes on audiobook.** In 1950s Hong Kong, Mei is a young refugee of the Chinese Communist revolution struggling to put her past in Shanghai behind her. When she receives a shocking invitation—to take part in a competition in one of the city's most notorious haunted houses, pitting six spirit mediums against one another in a series of six séances over six nights, until a single winner emerges—she has every reason to refuse. Except that the hostess, a former Shanghainese silent film star, is none other than the wife of the man who once destroyed Mei’s entire life. It is promised the winner will receive a fortune, but there is only one prize Mei wants: revenge. Decades later, the final night of that competition has become an infamous urban legend: The police were called to the scene of a brutal massacre but found no evidence, dismissing it as a collective hallucination. Mei knows what she saw, but now someone else is convinced they know what she did. She must uncover the truth about the last night she ever spent in that house—even if the ghosts of her past are waiting for her there. . . .

Let's bedazzle some books while we discuss our April pick: Bloodguard by Cecy Robson! Book description: One hundred years. Tens of thousands of gladiators. And today, only one will rise… Everything in the Kingdom of Arrow is a lie. Leith of Grey thought coming to this new land and volunteering to fight in the gladiator arena—vicious, bloodthirsty tournaments where only the strongest survive—would earn him enough gold to save his dying sister. He thought there was nothing left to lose. He was wrong—and they took everything. His hope. His freedom. His very humanity. All Leith has left is his battle-scarred body, fueled by rage and hardened from years of fighting for the right to live another day. Then Leith meets Maeve, an elven royal who is everything he despises. Everything he should hate. Until the alluring princess offers him the one thing he needs most: a chance to win the coveted title of Bloodguard—and his freedom. But in a kingdom built on secrets and lies, hope doesn’t come cheap. Nor will his ultimate revenge… Event: Please bring your own book, journal, bookmarks, etc to bedazzle. If you have bedazzling supplies, please bring them as well. I will supply gems, glue, and picker tools, but if you have certain colors in mind, you may want to bring your own.

This meeting will be a discussion of the book "the Science of Aliens" by Mark Brake

* Second ever book club! April meet up. All are welcome. * The book will be Play Nice by Rachel Harrison (determined by votes from March Book Club. Let me know if you’d like a free digital copy of the book) * This event will be at the main library, meeting room 1B, the location will not be changed for this event due to the number of people attending, we will just add more chairs if needed! * Feel free to come whether or not you’ve started or finished the book ◡̈ * Small snacks will be provided. You’re welcome to bring your own snacks & drinks too! Starting in June I will try to keep future book clubs at the Dublin Library. Now that I understand their reservation system, I will be on top of it with booking that location as soon as the date is released for the month. Thanks for your understanding with the varying locations in the meantime.

Let's grab some coffee/food and share a morning chat! The East Market has an ample parking lot and outdoor and indoor seating. Grab a cup of coffee from Winston's Coffee & Waffles or on your way to East Market and meet us on the second floor - table behind or east of the elevator. Per what this group is about: "Everyone is welcome! International transplants to Columbus who want to improve language skills, Columbus residents who enjoy talking to people from other countries, and those who would like to discuss international travel and culture, and who enjoy getting together for good conversations."

12:45-3:45 in the Meeting Room on the library lowest level. Bring your yarn projects, meet new friends. If you plan to attend, please RSVP yes. If you can’t attend, please change your RSVP to no. This helps anyone who is waitlisted and it allows me to have an accurate count of attendees as our space is quite limited. Plenty of parking in the lot, in the overflow lot across the street, and on the street. See you there! Winter Note: If the weather is bad and I have to cancel the Meetup, i will issue the cancellation not later than 3 p.m. of that day.
