Join us for our monthly book discussion in November. We offer the book talk twice during the month – 1 p.m. Nov. 4 and 6 p.m. Nov. 6.

The book for November is going to be "Blink: the Power of Thinking Without Thinking" by Malcolm Gladwell. Each discussion covers the whole book, so you do not need to come to both sessions, though you are certainly welcome to do so. Just pick whichever time is more convenient for you.
