Each year the Bluebonnet and Yellow Rose Book Clubs gather for lunch with a local author as their speaker. This year Jo Ivester will discuss her book NEVER 

A GIRL, ALWAYS A BOY: A FAMILY MEMOIR of a TRANSGENDER JOURNEY. The book incorporates the experiences of Jo’s family as they navigate this journey from early confusion and questions to realization and acceptance. Jo Ivester is a graduate of both MIT and Stanford University and lives with her husband in Austin. They have four children and five grandchildren. 

The lunch and talk will be held at Atria Senior Living at the Arboretum, 9306 

Great Hills Trail Drive, Austin, TX 78759. Lunch will begin at 11:30 and then be followed by the talk. Jo has asked for two mikes so the talk can be very interactive. She hopes to answer many questions.
