GONE: Free Books (Historical Fiction, Commercial Fiction, Sci Fi, Other)

[stilla-maris.livejournal.com]

ETA: Books claimed. Thanks!

I'm a book blogger who is moving, which means I have to deal with the badrillion books I've ended up with over the last few years. I've donated what I can but am still swimming in Advanced Review Copies (ARCs) -- non-final edition. Most of these books are releases from the last four years, including stuff that is just coming out or will be this autumn, and all are bound paperbacks. Most are historical fiction. Full list below the cut.

Please request more than two or three books, for my sanity. (Or take 'em all!) I can't deliver -- you must come pick up (and bring a container -- I've run out of boxes!) -- but I'm within walking distance of Davis Sq and Alewife, and on the 77. (Okay, if you take them all, I'll deliver.)

Shakespeare Slam!

[lillibet.livejournal.com]

Theatre@First welcomes you to the stage this Sunday for an afternoon of beer with the Bard!

Get up on stage and strut your Shakespeare stuff! Monologues, sonnets, stand-up...where there's Will, there's a way to the stage! Or sit back, relax and enjoy performances by some of the best Shakespeareans in the Boston area.

$5 to participate, $10 to watch! We'll have materials on hand in case you're inspired in the moment to get your Bard of Avon on.

From 2:00-2:30 PM, you can order food and drinks, sign up for last-minute performance slots, or just catch up with friends. Performances will begin at 2:30!

We'll have exciting performers ready to entertain us, trivia contests and prizes, and a sneak preview of Theatre@First's upcoming production of Henry the 4th!

Customer rally for Market Basket boycott 12-2 Sat Jul 26

For those of you who've been following the Market Basket debacle, the Board of Directers basically voted to stall indefinitely today, so that the workers would be in danger of being fired if they stayed out longer. So the spotlight's shifted to the customers, and there's a rolling customer rally from noon to 2PM tomorrow, at every Market Basket. Will I be seeing any of you there?
