Book Club, Tuesday, Period One
Today, class was being held in J,GoB. Was this nearly entirely due to the fact it was literally next door to Aphra's house? Yes. (Also the scones.)
There was a table set up with various comfy looking chairs around it (Isabela had already bagsed the comfiest one) as well as platters of various baked goods on thee table itself. Off to one side there was a table absolutely stacked with paperbacks with exceedingly lurid covers.
"Welcome," Aphra called out cheerfully around a mouthful of scone, like the class act she was. "Take a seat."
"This is going to be a more more causal class than some," Isabela added, because both of them were noted for their academically rigours classes, after all. "It's all about the joy of curling up with a good book and then sharing your thoughts with your friends. Especially when it actually turns out to be an absolutely terrible one."
"Since this is our first class, we figured we'll just be doing the first half of that today, grab a couple of things that look interesting, have some snacks, get to know each other, then next week we get to find out if you made good choices."
If you were in this class, you probably had already made some bad ones.

You didn't need to thank Isabela, it was a public service she was doing.
