The Greensboro Public Library Hosts Booklovers Social on February 22
The Greensboro Public Library will host its eighth annual
Booklovers Social from 6:30-8:30 p.m. on Wednesday, February 22 at the Central
Library, 219 N. Church Street. This year’s featured author, Quinn Dalton,
discusses her latest novel Midnight
Bowling. The Booklovers Social offers bibliophiles the chance to
connect with fellow booklovers. New and established book clubs will be on hand
to welcome new members. There will be door prizes, food and music. Participants
will also get the chance to vote for their favorite books of 2016, as well as
books to read for 2017. Dalton’s book, Midnight
Bowling, uses the backdrop of bowling that was working-class America’s
favorite sport, but on the decline in the 1970s and ‘80s. She tells the story
of a young standout bowler who is faced with the challenges of transitioning
into adulthood as she uncovers the complicated lives of the adults around her.
Dalton received her master's in fine arts from the University of North Carolina
at Greensboro and is the author of the novel High Strung, as well as two short story collections, Bulletproof Girl and Stories from the Afterlife. This event
is free and open to the public.
