There's a big event this coming Thursday –
Jonathan Safran Foer reading from his new book  Eating Animals at Old First Church,
with a reception afterwords at the bookstore.

According to Catherine Bohne, owner of the Community Bookstore, it was Foer's idea to read from the book at the church but to have the reception at the bookstore because he wanted to help raise funds for the
bookstore. That's why there's a $10 price tag. 
 

Foer and the Community Bookstore are hoping that people will want to hang out with this
favorite author and support the bookstore in the process.

Here are the 'tails (there's also a link to the CB website events page):
