Brazos Valley Reads 2010
The Brazos Valley Reads (BVR) program was initiated by the Texas A&M University English
Department. The goal of this program is simple: unite the entire community with one book. The 2010
book is The Woman Warrior: Memoirs of a Girlhood Among Ghosts by Maxine Hong Kingston.
This year's reading will be Tuesday, March 9, 2010 at 7:00 PM at the Bryan Civic
Auditorium. For more information, visit the Brazos Valley Reads website at
