A Roast and Toast Virtual Bookclub - Sisse Thompsett - August 3, 2024

Does the end of summer have you wanting to whine? Well join me with some cheese to go with that wine and dish it out on your least favorite book with our Roast and Toast virtual book club.

When: Thursday, August 15, 7:30 CT
Where: GoogleMeets (if Bee can help me out there)
What: Come prepared to roast your most hated book and to toast your most favorite book. The beauty of this? You don't have to actually read anything but can still keep up with the conversation. Plus you get to whine about something "productive" instead of just the end of summer.



This event will be counted as a Charming Social for Camp Charming 2024.


Disclaimer: This is meant to spark lively and respectful conversations. Please respect other members opinions of books and come with an open mind. (For instance, my most hated book is a book most people love.)
