Read Between The Wines

By Daisy Hutzell-Rodman

Several Glenwood women sat at Vine Street Cellars on a warm Thursday evening talking about books they recently read at “Read Between the Wines,” a book discussion group from the library.

The group is the brainchild of adult services librarian Teresa Buckingham, who started the group in 2012.

“It’s always been a dream of mine,” Buckingham said. “I can’t think of anything neater than getting together over wine and talking about books.”
