Saturday, May 11 @ 10am
Clay Jannon used to be a web designer, but the Great Recession put an end to that gig. Now he works the night shift at a bookstore. But what kind of book store is it really? The customers never seem to buy anything and are oddly secretive. With the help of his friends, Clay embarks on a complex analysis of their behavior to figure out the mystery. Join us in our discussion of Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore by Robin Sloan.
