Reading Tonight: Great Googly Moogly!

Four readings tonight, including someone who also read yesterday about the man who discovered the Douglas Fir.

Jaden Hair is at University Book Store tonight. Hair is the author of Steamy Kitchen Cookbook. Hair is an awful name for a chef.

Jeffrey Kotebra grew up with Tourette's Syndrome. He has also been struck by lightning. Inklings is his memoir about those experiences, and he'll read from it tonight at Elliott Bay Book Company.

But no contest: The reading of the night is at the Central Library tonight. Ken Auletta interviewed a bunch of people who work for Google and came out with a book called Googled: The End of the World as We Know It. One day, far in the future, there will be a comprehensive book about Google. This isn't that book, but it's a great first step. You should go to this reading and ask Auletta what Google Wave is for.

The full readings calendar, including the next week or so, is here. And if you're planning on staying in and you're looking for personalized book recommendations, feel free to tell me the books you like and ask me what to read next over at Questionland.
