It's not too late to make a reservation for the Books & Music in the Garden event to be sponsored by TCU Press Sunday, April 6, from 2-4 p.m. The garden? It belongs to Katie Sherrod and Gayland Pool and was included in the 2006 Nature Conservancy Tour. Find it at 1870 Ederville Road South in Fort Worth. The books & music? Steven Fromholz will headline and sing a few songs; supplementary music will be provided by sisters Shauna and Savannah Griffith on harp and violin. Books? Jon McConal's new A Walk Across Texas, Eats: A Folk History of Texas Foods represented by co-author Joyce Roach, Fort Worth's Legendary Landmarks by Carol Roark, Grace & Gumption, the stories of Fort Worth women told by several women, many of whom will be present, and of course Mr. Fromholz's new book, Steven Fromholz: New and Selected Poems 07. Wander in the garden, greet old friends and meet new, sip some wine or lemonade, and nibble on delicacies. To make reservations, go to www.prs.tcu.edu and click on the link to the event or call 817.257.7822.
Weather forecast for that day is 78 and partially cloudy--a perfect garden day!

On the Over the Top blog, staff writer Michael Granberry, on assignment to explore the blockbuster King Tut exhibit that's headed to Dallas, has some observations on reading habits in London.

(By happenstance, I just came across regular books page contributor John Freeman's own recent blog post that also discusses his experiences reading in London (and elsewhere). )
