August 20 CBAS meeting (There are Rivers in the Sky by Elif Shafak)

About this event

**We'll meet at 6:00 to share a *delicious* potluck dinner and discuss our chosen book (There are Rivers in the Sky by Elif Shafak). Dinner, great friends, and book discussions... what could be better? Everyone plan on bringing a WONDERFUL dish to share as well as a beverage.** **Location: Dori's House (2712 Alloway Ct, Raleigh, NC 27606)** **\*\*\* If you haven't done so yet, please bring $25 cash or a check to pay your dues. Thank you!** Since this book revolves around the Middle East, you are encouraged to try to make or find a Middle Eastern food to bring and share. If this is not possible for you, bring anything you like! Remember - we always run short of protein dishes!!! Please bring a protein dish if you have not done so in a while! \*\*\*Please remember to post what you are bringing on Meetup, and also *remember to change your RSVP if you can't make it.* **Newcomers - You are very welcome! "Oldies", of course you are welcome, too! ;)** **This really is a warm, friendly group!** \*\*\*\*I will send a reminder to those who have turned on their Meetup messages as we get closer. If you haven't turned on messages, you may want to do so. This is the best way for us to contact you if there are any changes. **CBAS Books for 2026** (subject to change) | Date | Book | Location | | ---- | ---- | -------- | | 2/19/26 | Daughters of the Bamboo Grove by Barbara Demick | Peggy's House: 512 Foxdale Ridge Dr, Cary, NC 27519 | | 3/19/26 | Wild Dark Shore by Charlotte McConaghy | Dori's House: 2712 Alloway Ct, Raleigh, NC 27606 | | 4/16/26 | The Magnolia Palace by Fiona Davis | To Be Announced | | 5/21/26 | My Friends by Fredrik Backman | Kimberly's House: 1809 Circeo Ct, Apex, NC 27502 | | 6/18/26 | The Frozen River by by Ariel Lawhon | Stephanie's House: 106 Cordova Ct, Cary, NC 27518 | | 7/16/26 | The Mighty Red by Louise Erdrich | To Be Announced | | 8/20/26 | There are Rivers in the Sky by Elif Shafak | Dori's House: 2712 Alloway Ct, Raleigh, NC 27606 | |…
