Books & Brews returns this week as we gather with our friends from the Lorain Public Library to discuss Christopher Bollen’s “A Beautiful Crime”.

Set against the canals and hidden corners of Venice, Bollen’s stylish literary thriller is packed with art, deception, ambition, and characters whose motives are never quite what they seem. Whether you loved it, hated it, or are still trying to figure out who was really playing whom, come join the conversation.

As always, no homework beyond reading the book, no lectures, and no pressure—just thoughtful discussion, great cocktails, and an evening spent with fellow readers.

Grab a drink, pull up a chair, and let’s talk books.
