Welcome!

Thanks for visiting the Ferry Tales discussion forum!  Whether or not you make it to our in-person discussions on the Seattle-Bainbridge ferry once a month, this is a space to participate in our discussion.  KRL librarians will post the nuts-and-bolts - the book selections, interesting tie-ins, updates on meeting times and locations, and such - but really this is here for you to share your ideas. 

Have a thought as you’re reading, but the meeting is still 2 weeks away?  Want to continue a thread a few days after we’ve met?  Couldn’t make it, but still want to put in your two cents?  Leave a comment!

A New Book and a New Program

Susan WiggsExciting news! Ferry Tales is being expanded to also include once-monthly author events. On the fourth Thursday of the month, meet a prominent local author. Tomorrow, our very first author will be the bestselling Susan Wiggs! Her new book, The Apple Orchard, has just been published. (And she might even have a little treat for you …)

We even got a little publicity about it from one of my favorite blogs:

I’m looking forward to discussing The Book Thief by Markus Zusak with you in May.
