Struggling to carve out time to delve into that novel you started ages ago? Distractions abound or work piling up? Well, here's a beautiful opportunity: Dive into a unique experience with our Reading Party concept, as featured in the **NY Times**.

Sunday's is perfect for those who would like to relax before the new work week! Leave your phone on silent and immerse yourself in the joy of reading. Here's the plan: 📕 6***:00 PM - Arrival*** Arrive early, chat with fellow book lovers, and perhaps snag the best reading spot. 👓 6***:10 PM - 7:10 PM - Reading Time*** Quietly dive into your book of choice. Feel free to join in whenever you arrive. 📚 7***:10 PM - 8:10 PM - Book Chats*** Engage in lively conversations about your current reads with other attendees. It's like speed dating, but for bookworms! **Don't forget to bring your book!** *It's a chance to connect with fellow book lovers, swap literary treasures, and engage in thought-provoking discussions in a cozy setting. All are welcome, whether you're a seasoned reader or just starting your literary journey. Get ready for an evening filled with books, tea, and stimulating conversations.*

Coffee Connections

Fri, Jul 17, 9:00 AM
From Backstory English Bookshop - Events
4.7

A casual (but coordinated) coffee break to meet new friends, take a Zoom break, and get your AM caffeine fix. Stop by for a few minutes or stay the whole time. Bring a friend or wander in solo. Come for the coffee and company, or just bring a book to read while surrounded by other in-real-life, community-seeking humans. Come by every Friday, or just when you happen to be in town. Make it whatever you need it to be that week. It's not an \*event\* per se, but we hope these Friday meet-ups can become a fixture of the bookshop! Gathering spot will be in the downstairs area of the bookshop (near the Community Library). Coffee and tea are 1.50€ and can be purchased at the cash register upstairs. Find more info on our Instagram (@backstorybookshop) or website (www.backstorybookshop.com).

Club de lectura - «Las gratitudes», de Delphine de Vigan

Club de lectura - «Las gratitudes», de Delphine de Vigan

Fri, Jul 17, 5:30 PM
From Club de lectura feminista
4.9

Es **imprescindible** reservar tu plaza en: [Club de lectura y debate feminista - Julio](https://entradium.com/events/club-de-lectura-y-debate-feminista-julio-barcelona-amora-libros) Día: **Viernes 17 de Julio** Hora: **de 19.30 a 21.00** Libro: ***Las gratitudes*, de Delphine de Vigan** Entrada: **4 euros** (+ gastos de gestión de la plataforma) Sede: **[Amora Libros](https://www.instagram.com/amoralibros_bcn/)** (C/ de Ramón y Cajal, 142, Joanic, Gracia, 08024 Barcelona) Cualquier duda, escríbenos a [info@ciempies.es](info@ciempies.es) En Instagram [ciempies.talleres](https://www.instagram.com/ciempies.talleres/) **Sobre el libro** *Las gratitudes* habla del envejecimiento, de la pérdida, del perdón y de la familia. Nos presenta tres voces: Michka, una anciana que sufre de afasia y pasa sus últimos días en un geriátrico; Marie, joven vecina de Michka a la que esta cuidaba de niña; y Jérôme, el logopeda de la residencia. El final lo sabemos desde el inicio: Michka va perdiendo las palabras, se va desvaneciendo y muere. Podría ser una novela triste, pero no lo es: *Las gratitudes* es de una infinita ternura y nos recuerda lo importante que es decir «gracias» a tiempo. **Sobre la autora** Delphine de Vigan es una novelista y guionista francesa. Debutó en 2001 con *Días sin nombre*, que publicó bajo el seudónimo de Lou Delvig. En su vasta obra, destacan *Nada se opone a la noche* (2012) —que la consagró internacionalmente— , *Basada en hechos reales* (2016), *Las lealtades* (2019) y *Las gratitudes* (2021).
