It’s that time of the year when excited students fill every available space, IKEA becomes a legit destination, everything comes out in “pumpkin spice” flavor, and the first Christmas ad pops up (it’s too early!). If only we could move beyond cliches, you muse…
Well, have no fear: the Romance Reading Group is back with its first session on romance that pushes the boundaries of the genre, or, at least, leans casually against them. Our first pick of the season is the intriguing and much acclaimed Love in Colour: Mythical Tales from Around the World, Retold short stories anthology by Bolu Babalola.
Please join us on Monday 28th Oct, at 6pm London time to discuss the anthology with a focus on the following stories:
- Psyche (retelling of Eros and Psyche)
- Nefertiti (the sapphic retelling of the Egyptian queen)
- Tiara (a new tale)
As always, we welcome everyone. Don’t worry if you haven’t had time to read the stories; join us for a chat anyway. We’re so looking forward to seeing you!
