An Immense World
This meeting will be an open discussion about the book "an Immense World" by Ed Yong
"The Enchanted Greenhouse" by Sarah Beth Durst
Come join us for tea and brunch at ZenCha as we discuss our March read, "The Enchanted Greenhouse"!
Book description:
Terlu Perna broke the law because she was lonely. She cast a spell and created a magically sentient spider plant. As punishment, she was turned into a wooden statue and tucked away into an alcove in the North Reading Room of the Great Library of Alyssium.
This should have been the end of her story . . . Yet one day, Terlu wakes in the cold of winter on a nearly-deserted island full of hundreds of magical greenhouses. Sheâs starving and freezing, and the only other human on the island is a grumpy gardener. To her surprise, he offers Terlu a place to sleep, clean clothes, and freshly baked honey cakesâat least until sheâs ready to sail home.
But Terlu canât return home and doesnât want toâthe greenhouses are a dream come true, each more wondrous than the next. When she learns that the magic that sustains them is failingâcausing the death of everything within themâTerlu knows she must help. Even if that means breaking the law again.
This time, though, she isnât alone. Assisted by the gardener and a sentient rose, Terlu must unravel the secrets of a long-dead sorcerer if she wants to save the islandâand have a fresh chance at happiness and love.

International Relations / Foreign Policy Group â Columbus Inaugural Meetup
**Welcome to the inaugural meeting of the International Relations / Foreign Policy Group Columbus!**
This group brings together students, professionals, academics, and anyone interested in global affairs, diplomacy, and geopolitics.
Our first meetup will be an informal discussion focused on current international developments and global trends. This is a great opportunity to:
⢠Meet others interested in international relations and foreign policy
⢠Discuss current global events and geopolitical developments
⢠Exchange perspectives and ideas in a respectful environment
⢠Build a network of globally minded individuals in Central Ohio (Columbus and periphery)
**Discussion topics may include:**
* Strategic planning for the group and the way forward
* US foreign policy priorities in 2026
* Major geopolitical developments (Europe, Asia, Middle East)
* Global security and strategic competition
* International economic and diplomatic trends
No prior expertise is requiredâeveryone is welcome, whether you're a student, professional, or simply interested in world affairs.
**This will be a casual, friendly, and intellectually engaging conversation.**
I look forward to meeting everyone and building a strong international relations / foreign policy community in Central Ohio.
