Todays Featured Book Event:

Stephanie Kallos Reading (Powells Books on Hawthorne, @7:30pm): With her bestselling debut novel Broken for You, Stephanie Kallos established herself as a writer of uncommon “wisdom and soulfulness” (Sue Monk Kidd). Sing Them Home (Atlantic Monthly Press) is a magnificent tapestry of lives connected and undone by tragedy, lives poised — unbeknownst to the characters — for redemption. “[A] fresh, invigorating novel,” cheers Library Journal (starred review).

Gabe Barber started Reading Local in January of 2009 as a vehicle for exploring Portland's literary scene. He's not an aspiring author, and you won't find his work on a bookshelf or in any prestigious lit rag. He is however, a full on book nerd, with a passion for independent literature.
