Nadia Hashimi's Blog: Video - Posts Tagged "discussion"

I had the honor of joining the book club at Boulevard Books & Cafe last night in Brooklyn, NY. It was brutally cold (as this winter has been on the northeast) but you wouldn't have guessed it in the bookshop. These readers were enthusiastic, emotional and invested -- making for a remarkable discussion of PEARL and all the hot topics contained within.

For me, it was an exceptional evening since it brought me back to Brooklyn, a borough with an incredible food, authentic neighborhoods and a healthy dose of attitude. I spent four years in Brooklyn, so I can say that.

Tatiana did a fantastic job of organizing and leading the discussion. If you want to hear an inspiring story on how one comes to own an independent bookstore in today's electronic market, pull her aside.

Tatiana approached me via email to ask if I would join their book club discussion and I could not resist.

If your book club has chosen PEARL, I'd be happy to Skype in and join the chat. I can be contacted through Goodreads, Facebook, Twitter or my website. (My smoke signal reception is limited).

Keep reading and stay warm...
