The metro area’s public library systems are once again partnering for the annual Big Read event, where the entire region is encouraged to read and discuss the same book. This year it is Old School by Tobias Wolf.
During April and May the libraries will present an array of lectures, book discussion groups, movie screenings, and an appearance by the author himself. Radio station KKFI 90.1 FM will present local celebrities and public figures reading the book in half hour installments over the two months.

Haven’t read it, but plan on it. Is it just me or does it seem like a Catcher in the Rye knockoff.
