Books, yes. Bowling, no.


We just returned from a fun and random Tue night event that's definitely worth sharing with you in this here cyberspace. It's called Books & Bars. Sponsored by The Onion funny paper, this literary hootenanny happens once-a-month at Bryant Lake Bowl in Uptown. Our friend Jeff Kamin is the M.C. of this Oprah's Book Club + beer + laughs + hipsters gathering. Definitely worth checking out in person (and at the very least, on their worldwidewebsite). "But don't just take our word for it." The Star Trib ran this article.

One response to “Books, yes. Bowling, no.”

Ironically, one of our only rules is that we don't do any of Oprah's picks. If we can grab it before she does, sure. But once she puts her seal on it. It's dead to us. We prefer to highlight lesser known yet still deserving authors. Always avail in paperback, "discussion worthy", voices of our generation when possible, and doable in a month. 2nd Tues of every month. Check us out. You're welcome even if you haven't read the book. Gracias - Jeff Kamin, Moderator, Books & Bars
Thanks again for giving us a try.
