Book buzz

Last evening, the Madison Library held its book discussion of Here If You Need Me. Comments included “This is an important book,” and “I loved this book!” One reader had marked his favorite passages, even though he could not come to the discussion. One thing that was clearly evident in both Kate Braestrup’s book and at the presentation by NH Fish and Game officers earlier in the month is that the people in the Warden Service or Fish & Game really love their jobs.

Book discussions start next week

Have you picked up your copy of Here If You Need Me yet? Stop in a local library to borrow one, or White Birch Books if you’d like to own a copy (author Kate Braestrup will be signing books at valley-wide event on November 13th.)

Discussions will be held next week (Tuesday, Oct. 14th) in Fryeburg and Effingham. And, next Wednesday, October 15th, the first “Search and Rescue in NH’s Forests” program presented by Fish & Game Officer Brian Abrams will take place in Madison at 7 pm.

Feedback from readers so far has been positive: “funny,” “real,” “not preachy,” and “lots to talk about.”
