GO READ IT:

Author Events to Start off 2021 in Style

The word is out...Congregation B'nai Shalom and the CCJCC are joining with the Jewish Book Council to bring several exciting author events to our community. "These events," notes Under One Tent chair Jo-Ann Jacobson, "not only serve an educational purpose but also provide an incentive to expand one's own literary reach. Our authors will cover a wide variety of topics--from sex trafficking in the 19th and 20th centuries to a thriller about a woman who is suspected of giving atomic bomb secrets to the Nazis."
