September Book Club - Treasure Island @ Rum Club

Come read & drink with us! **please note: we will be on one tab. Please bring cash or arrange to venmo with another attendee.

For September, in honor of Talk Like a Pirate Day, we are reading *Treasure Island* by Robert Louis Stevenson.

"From the moment young Jim Hawkins first encounters the sinister Blind Pew at the Admiral Benbow Inn until the climactic battle for treasure on a tropic isle, the novel creates scenes and characters that have fired the imaginations of generations of readers. Written by a superb prose stylist, a master of both action and atmosphere, the story centers upon the conflict between good and evil - but in this case a particularly engaging form of evil. It is the villainy of that most ambiguous rogue Long John Silver that sets the tempo of this tale of treachery, greed, and daring."

As a reminder, this meetup's intentions are to be out and about in the city, exploring new places for drinks and discussions about books. Will post a location ASAP. Taking recommendations for locations if you have one in mind!
