Bring your favourite book, e-book, graphic novel, DVD, podcast, blog or zine to discuss at this fun, casual, in-person event at Central Library.
You'll have six minutes with each person to chat about the item you brought and see if there is a friendship connection. At the very least you'll have a bunch of interesting conversations with people who share similar interests.
This event is open to all with limited space available and takes place in the Alice MacKay room in the Lower Level of the Central Library.
