Please join us for a fun summer program! Our Adult Book Tasting is happening on Wednesday, June 3rd at 5:00pm! 🍫📚🤓

How this works: We will have ARCs (Advanced Reader Copies) that are paired with different types of chocolate. You will read the synopsis of each book and try the chocolate that goes with it. You'll get to rate the book AND the chocolate! 🤩 We will also be giving away the ARCs that are part of the tasting and other ARCs! You may just find your next favorite read before it even comes out! 🤭
