The Vanishing Half - Part 1

31 - It's time for a new book and a new cocktail with your happy hour besties!  This week we start our discussion of The Vanishing Half by Brit Bennett while sipping on an indulgent New Orleans classic -  the Ramos Gin Fizz. We daydream about where we would go if we ran away from home like the Vignes sisters, wonder at the little things that make up who we are as we puzzle over how one can leave everything behind to become someone new... and we salivate over all that fruit Early shared with Desiree.

Chapters Discussed:  Chapters 1-3

Next Week:  Chapters 4-7

Join us again for Happy Hour next Thursday, and follow us on Insta @AreTheseBooksDrunk for updates on our next episode & cocktail pairing so that you can read along and sip along with us!
