Event Details
Join us on August 15th for a virtual author talk with adventurer and dogsledder - Blair Braverman!
This year's Big Summer Read selection is Small Game by Blair Braverman! Small Game is a gripping debut novel about a survival reality show gone wrong that leaves a group of strangers stranded in the northern wilds. During this event, Braverman will discuss what real-life experience inspired the book, her methods for learning about Wisconsin's wilderness, and her writing process. She will also answer audience questions, and even present a few questions of her own for readers. Could you do what it takes to survive?
We welcome you to join us for this great event in one of two ways:

- At the library with other people. We'll have Ms. Braverman up on the big screen in the Community Room! (You may register if you would like an email reminder prior to the event date.)
