Book Clubs Are Flipping Pages for Edward Kelsey Moore!

Every month, and all across the U.S., we find a book club or two who are discussing The Supremes at Earl’s All-You-Can-Eat, or its recent sequel, The Supremes Sing the Happy Heartache Blues.  This month there are more gatherings than usual (thanks particularly to the Elmhurst Public Library) where discussions of one or the other novel will take place.  You might enjoy skimming the descriptions below to see what the groups are up to.  You might even live near one of them and drop by to describe your experiences of reading the books with other Edward Kelsey Moore readers.  Tell your friends that live nearby, too!  Some events require registration, but all are free of charge.  Click on each link below to go directly to the event details.
Please note the author will not be present at these discussions.  (He’s rehearsing, performing and recording classical music this month -- and also busy working on a new book!) 

Wednesday, March 7th  Noontime Pageturners Book Club
Allen Public Library ~ Allen, Texas  (near Dallas)

March's selection is "The Supremes at Earl's All-You-Can-Eat"

Tuesday, March 20th  The Evening Book Club
Stillwater Public Library ~ Stillwater, New York  (north of Albany)

“The Supremes At Earl’s All-You-Can-Eat”
A traditional book club with titles we select as a group – all you have to do is read the book and join us for the discussion. There’s usually a snack related to the tale. New readers are always welcome! We are an easy going group and look forward to new ideas and interpretations, so join us!

The Elmhurst Public Library in Illinois selected E.K.M. as a focus author for the month of March — they will host three discussions of his work!  Not directly related to the March library programs, but true nonetheless: during the 1990s and early 2000s Edward Kelsey Moore was a professor of music at nearby Elmhurst College!

Elmhurst Public Library ~ Elmhurst, Illinois  (near Chicago)

Join us to discuss “The Supremes at Earl's All-You-Can-Eat”
