Are you a huge Toni Morrison fan? Do you think you could be, but haven’t gotten around to reading much of her work? Join in a community challenge to read all of Morrison’s work this year. Group members will read one book a month through November. Every 3 months, we’ll have a group conversation about the 3 books from the quarter exploring themes, connections, and our individual responses to the text. Unlike other group reads, these discussions will take place in a Discord voice channel as opposed to a written forum. Mark your calendars for the four meeting times today! Scroll below to find the reading assignments for each month.
