Better with a Beverage Book Discussion: The Hike
Join the Richard M. Daley Branch for a discussion of The Hike by Drew Magary .
When Ben, a suburban family man, takes a business trip to rural Pennsylvania, he decides to spend the afternoon before his dinner meeting on a short hike. Once he sets out into the woods behind his hotel, he quickly comes to realize that the path he has chosen cannot be given up easily. With no choice but to move forward, Ben finds himself falling deeper and deeper into a world of man-eating giants, bizarre demons, and colossal insects.
Relax, enjoy a beverage and read. Over the course of the month, read The Hike and aim to try at least one beverage from a Chicago-based institution of your choice while you read. At the end of the month, we will meet on Zoom to discuss the book and any interesting beverages you tried. Feel free to join the discussion BYOB style.
Copies of the title are available for checkout at the Richard M. Daley Branch. This event is hosted by Jacob from the Richard M. Daley Branch.
