About this event
Most days you eat your vegetables and read literature, but sometimes you need a little chocolate and escapism. Enter: microwave mug cakes and guilty pleasure reads! What's your guilty pleasure? Romance? Thrillers? Talking animals solving mysteries? Let's make sweet treats and talk about the books you love but would never take to book club. Boulder Public Library would like to thank everyone who has generously donated to the Boulder Library Foundation. Your financial support provides funding for library programs, services and facilities that help the people of Boulder develop and grow.
What to expect
Part baking session, part book chat. You make a quick sweet treat, then talk about the reads you enjoy but might hesitate to name at a more serious club. Nobody assigns a title, so the conversation follows whatever people bring. The hour is informal and meant for comparing favorites, not analyzing them.
Why go
The pitch is that no reading is too light, and that makes it easy to join in. Meadows is one of the Boulder Public Library's smaller branches, a neighborhood spot off Baseline Road with a warm, family-friendly feel. It suits readers who want book talk without homework.
