Celebrating the Tenth Year of “If All of Rochester Read the Same Book…” in the best possible way, the attendance at this year’s programs was the highest ever recorded. In addition to the thousands that saw and interacted with Ann Patchett while she was here, it is estimated that over 15,000 others in the community read the book, discussed it in their book clubs, their libraries, their classrooms and in bookstores, houses of worship, and in workplaces. “If All of Rochester Read the Same Book…” is now one of the oldest, largest and most successful community-wide programs of its kind throughout the country.
