About this event

All Adults, College Students, Older Adults, Young Adults (Ages 20-34). In August, we will read and discuss Summer on the Bluffs by Sunny Hostin. About Summer on the Bluffs: Every summer the beautiful, talented Afro-Latina lawyer Perry Soto escapes the heat of New York City for the gorgeous weather, cool water, and stunning views of Oak Bluffs, secluded in a beachside cottage owned by her “Ama,” with her husband and two god sisters. But this summer is different — Ama is moving to France, and will bequeath the house to one of her goddaughters at the end of the summer. Each of the women wants the house desperately, and each is grappling with a secret that they fear will make them lose Ama’s approval and the house — forever. We will meet in-person at Sip of Joy (661 Tremont St, Boston, MA 02118) at 2:00 pm for an hour-long discussion. Purchases are encouraged but not required. Our group meets on the second Tuesday each month. If interested in joining, please email [email protected] Accessibility Notice: We strive to make our events accessible.
