SUMMARY:Book Club | “How About Now” by Kate Baer
DESCRIPTION:Sidekick Coffee & Books meets on the second Monday of every month!\n\nJoin us on Monday\, December 8 at 10 am to chat about “How About Now” by Kate Baer\n Purchase the Book Here >>> bit.ly/HowAboutNow_BookClub\n\nAbout the Book\nThe third full-length poetry collection from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of What Kind of Woman. Renowned poet Kate Baer returns with a bold and compassionate collection that confronts the march of time in a shifting world. With her trademark candor and curiosity\, Baer explores what it means to grow older\, to release children into the wildness of their own lives\, and to reclaim the ever-evolving self. Raw\, luminous\, and urgent\, this collection channels Baer’s own journey to middle age into poems that are profoundly intimate yet resound universally\, identifying the beauty\, resilience\, and fragility that arrive in every stage of life.\n\nGrab a coffee\, bring your thoughts\, and join the conversation.\nEveryone’s welcome!
