Low-Vision Book Club: Coming Together
Friday, June 17
11:00am - 12:00pm
The Prevention of Blindness Society is hosting a monthly virtual book club this summer.
Love reading? Love talking about books you’ve read? Join the Prevention of Blindness Society this summer as POBREADS gathers virtually each third Friday at 11:00am to discuss titles focused on different sorts of human interaction, then share your own reading recommendations. Our goal is enjoyment, so everyone can contribute to the conversation! All of these books are available through your local Talking Books library for free, as well as for purchase through Audible or in Kindle format. All who register will receive a special gift from POBREADS!
