It was a busy event week last week with a great turnout, enthusiastic discussion, and, most importantly, a strong endorsement for Mr Peanut ! :) I also want to send a special thanks to those of you who came in the previous night for our event with Sarah Smarsh and Linda K Wertheimer to discuss Heartland. So nice for Wellesley Books to get the shout out on Sarah's Instagram for the SRO crowd on such a rainy evening and for the great questions asked by our own Book Group! As I've said before, acknowledgements like this are like gold with publishers and we'll use them to build an even bigger event pipeline down the road.
While we are on the topic of upcoming events, I wanted to make sure you saw the email blast that came out this morning regarding a Bobby Orr: My Life in Pictures book signing that Wellesley Books is hosting on Tuesday, November 6th. We have not announced the event to the general public yet, but when we do we expect it to sell out quickly. If you have any interest, please act quickly.After a lot of back and forth on logistics and timing, I am happy to announce that Aaron Thier will be coming to the store on Wednesday, November 7th, to discuss The World is a Narrow Bridge. Come get your book signed and get all those questions answered! The event is free and open to everyone, so bring your friends and loved ones..... However, we ask that you register for the event here to help us gauge the level of interest.
And finally, our next Book Group meeting is set for Wednesday, November 28th. We'll be reading A Shepherd's Life: Modern Dispatches from an Ancient Landscape. James Rebanks takes us through a shepherd's year with the rugged Herdwick sheep in England's Lake District.
