Quick Book Review. As we enter a period of frequent holiday get-togethers, I strongly recommend reading Priya Parker's The Art of Gathering. In it, Parker whisks you through the ways that you can make your gathering special. While hosting good gatherings for the utility they provide is likely not a top cause area, creating community around effective action seems indispensable. Plus, the book is available for five dollars on Amazon, so it seems likely to have massive upside ROI potential: https://www.amazon.com/Art-Gathering-How-Meet-Matters/dp/1594634920
