A reading by Elizabeth Royte is definitely something to make time for. That’s because she’s Park Slope’s super smart, award-winning author of Garbageland and now Bottlemania: How Water Went On Sale and Why We Bought It.

She did a fantastic reading at Brooklyn Reading Works when Garbageland first came out reading excerpts with interesting introductions and asides.  It makes for a fascinating hour or so—and a very educational and informational one.

I just got this nice email from her. She wants to spread the word. I like the way she sends a mass email by specifying why you are receiving it. That’s probably something I should do.

Dear Friend Who Lives in Brooklyn,

I will be reading from/talking about my new book, Bottlemania: How Water
Went On Sale and Why We Bought It, on June 13, 7:30 pm, at the Community
Bookstore (143 Seventh Avenue – near Carroll Street). Hope you can make
it, and feel free to share this notice with anyone in the world.

All best,
Elizabeth
