SUMMARY:Lusty Literature Book Club: "Under Loch and Key" by Lana Fergusonn
DESCRIPTION:Are you looking for a book club where the stories are spicy\, the discussions are unhinged\, and every selection comes with a delicious dose of on-page steam? If so\, Lusty Literature may be just the book club you have been seeking!  \nThis is your judgment-free haven where romance lovers can gush\, blush\, and chat freely about all things love\, tension\, and spice. Before you dive into our monthly picks\, don’t forget to peek at those content warnings—some of our picks can be a little dark or include triggers you might choose to stay away from. \nWe will be meeting on the second Friday of the month (unless a different date is provided due to the facilitator or store schedule demands). \nAll adult readers (18+ due to mature themes) with good vibes and open minds are welcome\, whether you have read the book or not. At Four Seasons Books\, book clubs are about community\, not completion. Please be aware that the ability to not “yuck someone’s yum” IS required for attendance as everyone has different preferences\, not every book is for every person\, and we want to show one another kindness and respect.  \nBook clubs are intended to be a safe space for readers to share their thoughts and connect with others\, which is especially true with Romance. In our efforts to be inclusive while balancing emotional comfort\, the group facilitator reserves the right to ask a guest to leave if they are creating an uncomfortable environment or are not participating respectfully.\n​\n*No registration required\, just come by the store for the meeting.* \nOrganizer: Four Seasons Books \nLocation: 114 W German St\, Shepherdstown\, WV\, United States\, West Virginia 25443 \nSource: View original event

SUMMARY:Making Space for Difference: A Path to a More Vibrant Community
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Ashley Horst. Cost: $15; free for fall subscribers and SU students and employees.

In this engaging and thought-provoking lecture\, we’ll explore how making space for a range of perspectives enriches our shared experiences and improves the communities we care about.

SUMMARY:Lectures and Libations: 250 Years of Independence: An Exploration of the History\, Memory\, and Meaning
DESCRIPTION:Shepherd University is excited to kick off a new season of “Lectures and Libations” with a panel discussion on the meaning and legacy of America 250 led by Dr. Ben Bankhurst with guests. This July the United States celebrates the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Beyond its primary function of stating the end of British rule in the former colonies\, the Declaration also served as a statement of principles for the new nation. Generations of Americans have looked to the anniversary of the declaration’s signing and adoption to make sense\, in their time and place\, of our founding manifesto. The panel brings together historians and public scholars to explore how Americans have remembered\, commemorated\, and debated the Revolution from the eighteenth century to the present. Panelists will discuss the WV250 initiative\, examine the evolving history of Revolutionary commemorations in public institutions and museums\, and consider the Revolution’s enduring meaning and legacy. The conversation will address how the nation’s founding continues to shape civic identity\, historical memory\, and public life today.  \nAbout this lecture series: The Lectures and Libations series was first started by Shepherd University prior to the COVID-19 pandemic as a way to bring engaging\, faculty-led discussions to a community setting. Now relaunched as part of the Lifelong Learning program in partnership with Shepherd faculty\, the series offers accessible\, thought-provoking presentations that help strengthen connections between the University and the broader local community.  \nOrganizer: Shepherd University Lifelong Learning \nLocation: Alma Bea \nSource: View original event

SUMMARY:Supper Club Book Club: TBD
DESCRIPTION:Some stories make you hungry.\nSome make you nostalgic.\nSome make you want to pour a drink\, settle in for the evening\, and talk about it with friends. \nCome gather around the table with us for good food\, rich conversation\, and a story that centers food as it’s own character.

SUMMARY:Nature Nook: "The Overstory"by Richard Powers
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to the Nature Nook!  \nWe evolved from the natural world\, yet many of us now spend our days in spaces shaped more by concrete\, screens\, and schedules than by forests\, fields\, and streams.

SUMMARY:The Unfictionables Club: "Maybe You Should Talk To Someone" by Lori Gottlieb
DESCRIPTION:The Unfictionables Club is  a dynamic book club for lovers of non-fiction. Each month\, we dive into thought-provoking reads that span a range of real-world topics\, from current events and recent history to autobiographies\, personal narratives\, and gripping true crime stories. Our goal is to engage in lively discussions that go beyond the pages and explore the people\, events\, and ideas that shape our world. \n​Whether you’re drawn to the raw truth of personal memoirs or the unraveling of real-life mysteries\, The Unfictionables is the place to explore\, debate\, and learn together. Join us as we explore the fascinating stories that define reality. \n​We will be meeting on the first Tuesday of the month (unless a different date is provided due to the facilitator or store schedule demands).  \nBook club members receive 10% off the monthly selection. Copies will always be available in-store and often also on Libro.fm for audio download. \nAt Four Seasons Books\, book clubs are about community\, not completion. \n*No registration required\, just come by the store for the meeting.* \nOrganizer: Four Seasons Books \nLocation: 114 W German St\, Shepherdstown\, WV\, United States\, West Virginia 25443 \nSource: View original event

SUMMARY:Runes and Roses: "Vesselless" by Cortney L. Winn
DESCRIPTION:Romantasy is the genre where sword fights and swoon-worthy moments go hand in hand\, where the stakes are high\, the kisses are stolen\, and sometimes\, the dragons are too.  \nThink of it as the ultimate fantasy escape\, with a side of heart-fluttering romance that’ll have you cheering for the hero to save both the day and their true love.  \n​We will be meeting on the first Wednesday of the month @ 6:30pm (unless a different date is provided due to the facilitator or store schedule demands) in the upstairs community space of the store. \nBook club members receive 10% off the monthly selection. Copies will always be available in-store and often also on Libro.fm for audio download. \nAll adult readers (18+ due to mature themes) with good vibes and open minds are welcome\, whether you have read the book or not. At Four Seasons Books\, book clubs are about community\, not completion. Please be aware that the ability to not “yuck someone’s yum” IS required for attendance as everyone has different preferences\, not every book is for every person\, and we want to show one another kindness and respect.  \nBook clubs are intended to be a safe space for readers to share their thoughts and connect with others\, which is especially true with Romance. In our efforts to be inclusive while balancing emotional comfort\, the group facilitator reserves the right to ask a guest to leave if they are creating an uncomfortable environment or are not participating respectfully. \n*No registration required\, just come by the store for the meeting.* \nOrganizer: Four Seasons Books \nLocation: 114 W German St\, Shepherdstown\, WV\, United States\, West Virginia 25443 \nSource: View original event
