Tea & Book Chat: A Virtual Book Discussion Group
First Monday of the Month at 3 pm on Zoom (unless otherwise noted)

This year's Reading Across Rhode Island (RARI) selection is Rising: Dispatches from the New American Shore by Elizabeth Rush, a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize. Rising is a highly original work of lyric reportage and a haunting meditation on how to let go of the places we love.
The ebook of Rising is available for simultaneous use on eZone now through June 13. There are no holds, no waiting. Borrow Rising now here.
