Writers & Books and Ampersand Books
740 University Ave.
Feb 5, 6:00 pm - 9:30 pm

Join us on Friday, February 5 to kick off the 16th year of the “If All of Rochester Reads the Same Book…” (aka Rochester Reads) program! Join us early (6:00-7:15pm) for a “Writing Women’s Lives” reading by Sonja Livingston, Sarah Freligh, Jenny Lloyd, Sally Parker, and Sally Bittner Bonn in our Performance Space. Peruse works for sale by local artists who make art about the Flower City and indulge in our popular “Blind Date With a Book.” Enjoy music, and apple-themed refreshments. Expand the celebration with a Scavenger Hunt as part of First Friday, with prizes! Visit participating First Friday venues and find a hidden item related to the book (images of the item will be posted on the W&B website and Facebook page and via Twitter on Friday, February 5 at noon). Bring your found item to W&B by 9:30pm to receive a free copy of Queen of the Fall or Ghostbread.
