The Books, Brunches & Booze (BB&B) Lehigh Valley chapter recently hit their one-year mark and the group celebrated the milestone with some pressed-flower lantern making at the Emmaus Public Library in May. Some of the chapter’s favorite reads of the year include Yellow Wife by Sadeqa Johnson, The Lies I Tell by Julie Clark and The Alice Network by Kate Quinn. “The group loves trivia at local restaurants or breweries,” says chapter host Emily Grothaus, noting that they celebrated Friendsgiving with a potluck and enjoyed a book exchange over the holidays. They meet twice a month, with activities ranging from meet-the-author events to creative workshops like candle making, crocheting and vision board crafting. When asked what they love most about BB&B, making connections and building friendships through a love for reading was at the top of the list.
