Wish I could be there
ReplyDeleteThis is an awesome event for St Patrick's day.
ReplyDeletePurely coincidently I suppose I have chosen well for my own reading for St. Patricks's Day. I am currently reading a couple of James Joyce's books and will likely be still reading him through St. Patricks Day.
Sounds like an interesting event.
ReplyDeleteThat is an awesome list of authors. Sharing free books throughout the city is a great idea.
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing and novel way to celebrate, I think this is a great idea that should be taken up no matter what day we may be celebrating.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like fun!
