Your third Thursdays are about to get a little more interesting!  Come join us as we meet Virtually around the Zoom screen!  Get together with like-minded Comic Book and Graphic Novel lovers to discuss some interesting reads.

Join us as we discuss this (not your typical) Comic Book Book Club choice for AAPI Heritage month "Cook Korean!: A Comic Book With Recipes" by Robin Ha as a group!  

Summary: "A charming introduction to the basics of Korean cooking in graphic novel form, with 64 recipes, ingredient profiles, and more, presented through light-hearted comics. Playful and instructive, Cook Korean! is the intersection of cookbook and graphic novel in one easy-to-use package dedicated to this increasingly popular Asian cuisine. Illustrator Robin Ha presents colorful, humorous comics that fully illustrate all the steps and ingredients necessary for all 64 recipes in a clear, concise presentation (with no more than 2 pages per recipe on average). Recipes featured include Easy Kimchi (Makkimchi), Spicy Bok Choy (Cheonggyeongche Muchim), and Seaweed Rice Roll (Kimbap), among many other dishes. Each chapter includes personal anecdotes and cultural insights from Ha, providing an intimate entry point for those looking to try their hand at this cuisine. Perfect for beginners and seasoned cooks alike, Cook Korean! is accessible, fun, and inviting"-- Provided by publisher.
