It looks like this weekend is going to be a busy one for Baltimore book lovers.

First up, Ukazoo is holding a bookbinding class at 11 a.m. Rebecca Bridges returns to teach patrons how to create handmade books using old books. You will learn how to make a hardcover book using the Japanese Stab Binding technique. For $15, you get all the materials you need, refreshments and a new, old book of your own making. Call 410-832-2665 to sign up ahead of time, as this course filled up fast last time around.

If 11 a.m. is too early for you, perhaps you and Dave could join the Eat Pray Love discussion at the Pennsylvania branch of the Pratt library. As a woman who HASN'T read the book (gasp!) I am relying completely on Dave's opinion thus far. And he says he intends to enlighten us with that opinion in a future post. I hope you guys enjoy Book Report Dave as much as I do.

For a sophisticated afternoon, head over to the Watermark Gallery Sunday at 2 for their Lit and Art series event. Featuring writers Lauren Beth Eisenberg, Eric D. Goodman, Nitin Jagdish and Cliff Lynn, there will be plenty of lit to go with the live music, surreal artwork and complimentary wine. You can even share your own work during an open mic session.

And if that's not enough for you, go visit the Read Street calendar.
