Where will you find love on Valentine’s Day? We suggest skipping dinner and a movie. Instead, celebrate the occasion (a couple of days early) with fellow bookworms at KGB Bar. Hey, you might end up meeting the love of your life. And if that doesn’t happen, you can still kick back with a nice brew and listen to Slice contributors talk about loves won and lost.
Where: KGB Bar
When: February 12, 7pm
Who: Kathleen Alcott, Ian F. King, Sarah Gerard, Lucas Hunt, Sharona Moskowitz, and John Trotta

#143: The Ability to Read
It’s a rare day when I take recommendations from customers. Maybe that’s pretentious of me, but to be honest, it’s also a rare day when I take recommendations from friends. Just ask how long it’s taking me to watch a friend-lended complete set of The Wire, or how many years I let go by before finally reading one of the best fantasy novels I have ever set eyes on.
Actually, better that you don’t ask.
But that doesn’t mean I don’t listen to customers as they’re recommending something. Thus, the man buying two copies of Pete Hamill’s Forever.
