Monica Wood will discuss the book How to Read a Book with host Bill Nemitz on Thursday, September 25th at 7:00 PM.
Do you love books? Are you interested in hearing from the author and looking behind the curtain at what the author was thinking while writing? Perhaps have the author respond to a question or two that has been on your mind about a particular scene or character. Look no further than the Maine Public Book Club!

Join reporters from Maine Public and the Maine Trust for Local News for a series of listening sessions this fall. What’s going on in Maine that you’d like to see covered? What is happening in your community that we should be aware of? What do you like and not like about our respective coverage of the news so far in 2025?
We are holding a series of events we are calling Issues & Ale at local brewpubs. Grab a chair and meet one-on-one with people who cover the state.

Three award-winning, singer-songwriters will merge talents to spread their good vibes and great harmonies in the intimate setting of Footlights Theatre on Sunday, 10.26.25.
Maine singer-songwriter/multi-instrumentalist Lynn Deeves honed her stage/vocal skills on the New England high energy, rock club circuit of the 1980’s and 90’s. Known for her soulful vocals, wit and easeful presence, she has released 4 independent solo CD’s. She also collaborated on a 5th CD with Maine songwriting trio “under the song tree,” along with notable Maine performers Anni Clark and Dan Merrill. Lynn has shared stages with Cheryl Wheeler, Ellis Paul, Ferron, America and others. She contributed a track to the “Maine Pink Album” celebrating the 26 top women recording artists in Maine, a benefit compilation for the Maine Breast Cancer Center.
With a rich, powerful voice, Trina Hamlin seamlessly moves from guitar to piano to self-accompaniment on harmonica. She has toured throughout the U.S. and Europe, with her trademark driving, rhythmic, blues and rock-infused songs/grooves. Hamlin earned a degree in professional music from Berklee College in Boston and has since written and co-produced 5 solo albums. She has performed at the Newport Folk Festival and been a guest on “Late Night with Conan O’Brien. Her music has been featured on popular television shows on the WB, Lifetime, CBS, ABC and MTV. Hamlin has shared stages with Taj Mahal, Charlie Musslewhite, John Hiatt and Rickie Lee Jones, to name a few.
Colleen Sexton migrated to New England from Syracuse, NY to attend law school, stayed in school two days and soon began touring the Eastern US/Canada. Colleen is a respected artist and performer, combining the sweet sounds of the front porch in summer with the soul of a vintage Harlem night. Her CD Greatest Find features guest appearances by Martin Sexton, Cliff Eberhardt, and Janis Ian. Colleen independently released Colleen Sexton LIVE (Crescent Records) and her debut CD, Step Outside, garnered two Boston Music Award nominations (1999). Her song 'Dear Arlene' appears on the Respond compilation CD, which Billboard Magazine's editor named the number one album of 1999.
