You are definitely going to want to take notes while listening — with pen and paper, on your phone, whatever is your thing. Ward Tefft of Chop Suey Books shares some of his favorite books of 2016. Some are well-known, some are hidden gems, but you can count on all of them to be fantastic with Ward’s stamp of approval. P.S. One of the things that makes Richmond such a great place to live is our rich local literary and arts life. So do your part — shop local and support local artists!
