Carry a snack or lunch with you this Thursday, November 3, 2011 from Noon-1 p.m. to Conference Room B of Columbia Public Library. Carry it right into Bright-Sided: How Positive Thinking Is Undermining America by Barbara Ehrenreich.

Author of Nickel and Dimed explores how positive thinking can really hurt us. In a culture where optimism comes naturally, we don't always think about how the refusal of thinking about negative outcomes can contribute to disaster.

What do you think? Come join the First Thursday Book Discussion from 7-8 p.m. if you can't make the lunch session.
