We're excited to invite you to the Chitchat & Chapters Virtual Book Club, happening on the fourth Wednesday of every month! The first meeting is on September 25 at 1 p.m. ET. This is your chance to connect with fellow NWRA Women's Council members over a shared love of books, podcasts, documentaries and bingeworthy shows. This is a fantastic opportunity to share your latest finds and get some stellar recommendations from others. Who knows, you might discover your next favorite book or show through a fellow member's suggestion! So, please mark your calendars for the fourth Wednesday of each month, and come prepared to chat about what you're reading or watching. We can't wait to hear all about your latest obsessions and to add a few new titles to our own lists. See you there! Please reach out to Katie Evans at [email protected] if you need a Teams invite.
