Roaming Readers: Fantasy
Lace up your sneakers, pop in your earbuds, and get swept up in a story one step at a time!
Roaming Readers is an audiobook club with a twist! Join us on May 3 from 9:30–11:00am as we hit the trails in RTP for a morning of fresh air, light movement, and literary adventure.
Each month, we’ll explore a different genre with suggested selections curated in partnership with Durham County Library and Wake County Public Libraries. You are always welcome to chart your own course and select any book of your choosing. Our Library partners have titles available from Hoolpa or Libby, making it easy to borrow and press play. This month’s selection is Fantasy!
Here’s how it works:
- Borrow or download a book in this month’s suggested audiobook genre from your local library. Arrive early to apply with for a library card if you do not already have one to gain access. This month’s suggested title is Between Two Fires by Christopher Buehlman. If you have already read it, cannot access a copy, or would prefer another title, we suggest: He Who Fights with Monsters by Shirtaloon or No Gods, No Monsters by Cadwell Turnbull.
- If you’d like to sign up for a library card, remember to bring a photo ID.
- Bring your phone, headphones and a water bottle.
- Walk the trails with fellow book lovers while listening at your own pace.
- Optional: Gather at the end to chat about the story, share favorite moments, and connect.
This event is for book lovers, the book-curious, people who haven’t been able to make time to read (or listen) for fun, introverts, extroverts, exercisers, care givers pushing strollers, (leashed) dog owners, groups, singles, nature lovers, and multi-taskers
All paces welcome. Take breaks when you need them.
We know it is easy to get transported to another world when listening to your book. Be sure to stay alert as we will be crossing roads and may encounter uneven pavement.
This event is free to attend and open to all. While attendance is free, please register for a free ticket to receive reminders and stay in the know for any updates. Free public parking is located on the deck just across the street at 3150 Elion Drive.
