SUMMARY:Author Discussion: Cindy Gentry
DESCRIPTION:Meet Cindy Gentry\, author of Sermons on the Couch: A Year of Inspirational Reflections\, on October 5th at 6:30. \nAbout the Book \nIn Sermons on the Couch\, Cindy Gentry offers weekly sermons that meet people where they are—whether religious or spiritual\, agnostic or atheist. Instead of references to deities\, her lessons are placed in the context of a force in the Universe. Instead of Biblical quotes\, she uses the wise words of celebrities\, scientists\, poets\, and thinkers. Rather than traditional hymns\, she closes each sermon with suggested popular songs from across genres. At the end of each Sermon\, she offers journal questions to guide further contemplation of the weekly topic. \n

SUMMARY:Author Talk: Rachel Hobbs
DESCRIPTION:Saturday October 07\, 2023 | 11:00AM – 12:00PM\n\nMeet author\, Rachel S. Hobbs\, and celebrate the release of her debut picture book\, Tango Red Riding Hood\, on October 7th at 11:00 AM. \nAbout the Author\nRachel Hobbs was born in the US to a Californian dad and an Argentine mother. She grew up with a love of languages and music and received her BA in Spanish with a minor in music. She also enjoys volunteering and working with children\, in addition to raising her own three kids. She currently resides in Monterey\, CA. \nAbout the Book \nIn this modern interpretation of a classic fairytale\, readers tango along with Moni as she sways to the music that follows her through the woods. In a clearing\, Moni stumbles upon Lobo . . . playing a bandoneón? Moni can’t help from tap-tap-tapping to the tune\, but when the music ends\, Moni’s pace turns from tango to milonga after Lobo says he ate Abuela. Readers are certain to be both surprised and relieved when they learn Abuela is alive and well\, and waiting on another guest – her amigo\, Lobo. \n

SUMMARY:Author Event: Kathy Elkind
DESCRIPTION:Kathy Elkind will be joining us at The Avid Reader to celebreate the release of her new book\, To Walk It Is To See It\, on October 19th at 6:00. \nAbout the Author\nKathy Elkind is a long-distance walker\, writer\, and eater. Along with her husband\, she has walked the GR5\, the Andalucian Coast-to-Coast Walk in Southern Spain\, and parts of the Cammino Materano in Italy. Kathy lives in the Mad River Valley of Vermont\, in Fayston. \nAbout the Book\nIn 2018\, Kathy Elkind and her husband decided to take a grown-up “gap year” in Europe and walk the 1\,400-mile Grande Randonnée Cinq (GR5) across The Netherlands\, Belgium\, Luxembourg\, and France. Walking day after day for ninety-eight days bring sickness\, accommodation struggles\, language barriers\, and storm-shrouded mountains in the Alps. Meanwhile\, Kathy finds herself reflecting on difficult topics—primarily\, her struggles with dyslexia\, overeating\, and shame. As the days unfold\, she comes to the gratifying realization that a long marriage is like a long trail: there are ups and downs and it takes hard work to keep going\, but the beauty along the way is staggering. \n
