Golden Mean, Mistress of Nothing, Ice Lovers

OkOK so we're not great bloggers. Maybe cause we are great readers at TRS. So here we go ... a little catchup. We've been booking authors and reading like crazed book worms. First authors: Tues Jan 26 7:00 at Commensal resto on Elm b/w Bay and Yonge. Rev up those new year's resolutions with Rick Gallop and Joey Shulman along with two essayists from Edible City..very cool stuff. A foodie night for people who want to be healthy. Don't miss it. $5...Like the Toronto Star says, "Best deal in town"
More author news: We've lost Jan Wong 'til next fall (boo hoo) but great news is Joy Fielding is confirmed for May 25. She is one great dame...amazing woman...come meet her on May 25. Get new book signed...she is so much bloody fun.
Feb is all about Money Honey with lots of money tips from some pretty savvy people. Check out our listing at www.torontoreadingseries.com
OK: now for the reading part. Teddy Bearendson our money guru has just finished The Golden Mean.."bloody brilliant' he said. That is very high praise from Teddy let me tell you. Usually he shrugs when a book is terrific. Rose Bella our techno wiz loved the Ice Lovers "bad title...how could they create such a pathetic title for such a fantastic book. I loved it...it was amazing...I'm taking it to my book club for sure." The boss has finished Mistress of Nothing the GG winner - deservedly so. Pullinger is nuanced and subtle and very very smart. A wonderful wonderful story. "Get it."
Less than two months to spring...things are looking brighter already...we've gained more than 5 mins of daylight since equinox. Hey...every second counts.
