The next two books in Sarah J. Maas’s beloved A Court of Thorns and Roses&nbsp;series are officially on the way! In anticipation of the upcoming new releases in the beloved A Court of Thorns and Roses, we’re gathering each month to revisit the iconic romantasy saga by Sarah J. Maas—leading up to what is sure to be one of the most anticipated book releases of the year.

Starting in May, we’ll meet once a month to revisit Books 1–5&nbsp;together—perfect for longtime fans eager to return to Prythian or newcomers ready to experience the series for the first time. Along the way, we’ll relive favorite moments, debate the drama, celebrate the romance, and prepare ourselves for the long-awaited next chapter.

And of course, all of this leads to the ACOTAR release celebration of the year this October. 

Expect an evening filled with lively conversation, great wine, and spirited debate!

You already know you love Sauvignon Blanc. But do you know it can smell and taste entirely different depending on where it's grown? And that a Sancerre-lover can drink just as well on half the budget—if they know where to look? That's exactly what we're going to learn—together.

Book Society is thrilled to bring back our wine tasting series this July, led by Book Society's somm-in-training, Damian Guzman. This three-part workshop takes a fresh approach to wine education: each session zooms in on one compelling question—how does the same grape taste when grown in different hemispheres? Where are the hidden-value bottles sommeliers stock up on at home? And what really makes Champagne Champagne? Come for one class or all three; either way, you'll leave with a sharper palate and a few very good secrets.

Laney College's AI Center of Excellence (BAAICOE), 900 Fallon St, Oakland, CA 94607

July 23-Oakland (4-6 PM) &amp; Aug 4-San Rafael (5:30-7:30 PM)

Join us for an evening of networking and education with fellow NARI members and Bay Area remodeling industry professionals. To make it easy to attend, we're offering this program in two locations on different dates-same topic, different demonstrations:

* July 23 - The AI Center at Laney College, Oakland (900 Fallon St, Bldg F, Room 254)
* August 4 - Floortex Designs, San Rafael

Ninety minutes won't make anyone an AI expert-and that's not the goal.

What this session will do is move you from AI-curious to AI-practical by providing a clear framework for using AI tools to save time, streamline tasks, and solve real business challenges.

This program skips the hype. It's designed for busy remodeling professionals who don't have time for endless theory-or for chatbots that confidently invent code requirements or construction details. The real value of AI comes from applying it to your projects, your data, and your professional judgment.

Presenters Brian and Tuan bring AI expertise, facilitation skills, and cross-industry experience. You bring the remodeling knowledge. Together, we'll explore how to direct AI toward the challenges you already understand and turn it into a practical business tool.

We'll also showcase real-world demonstrations from business owners and remodeling professionals who are already using AI effectively in their day-to-day operations. No futuristic concepts-just proven examples, lessons learned, and ideas you can put to work immediately.

If there's interest in taking the next step, we'll survey attendees at the end of each session about future hands-on training opportunities. Based on demand, we may coordinate a workshop series focused on applying AI directly within your remodeling business.

PLUS Industry Networking. Meal provided.

Personal Training with Unlimited DEXA and VO2 Max

Custom Fit

Most training programs run on guesswork. Custom Fit replaces it with measurement. At its San Francisco studios, Personal Training and Partner Training memberships include unlimited DEXA body-composition scans and VO2 max testing — diagnostics usually sold one scan at a time or reserved for specialized clinics. Custom Fit members can test as often as they train. The reasoning is straightforward. A DEXA scan measures fat, lean muscle, and bone density with clinical precision. A VO2 max test measures the body's maximum oxygen uptake, one of the strongest predictors of cardiovascular fitness and long-term health. Run those tests on a regular cadence and a member can see exactly what is changing, where, and whether a program is working — rather than relying on the scale or the mirror. That is the idea behind Custom Fit's positioning: not a gym, a performance lab. Every program is built from a member's measured body composition and cardiovascular capacity, then adjusted as the data moves. The goal is to eliminate the guesswork that defines most fitness routines and to treat training as something you can verify. The model also brings longevity diagnostics that usually live in concierge medicine into a routine training week. Body composition and cardiovascular capacity are central markers of how well a person is aging, and regular testing keeps those numbers visible rather than treating them as an occasional, expensive add-on. Custom Fit operates in Hayes Valley (323 Octavia Street), on Market Street (1844 Market), and with a Downtown San Francisco location on Battery Street (570 Battery) opening soon. Personal Training, Partner Training, and select memberships include the testing. More information is available at customfitsf.com.

Are there hidden accessibility barriers on your website?

Accessibility in Practice

Does your website look great but people still drop off before buying, booking, or signing up? Most small business owners don’t realize accessibility might be the reason. Your site might “pass” an automated scan or look fine visually, but still be impossible to use for people navigating by keyboard, screen reader, or other assistive tech. Automated tools don’t test whether someone can actually fill out a form, complete a purchase, book a service, or make a donation. That’s where accessibility issues tend to hide. In fact, WebAIM’s 2025 Million report found that 94.8% of the top 1,000,000 home pages had detectable Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) failures. That’s where I come in. I run hands-on accessibility reviews that go beyond automated tools. I test your site like a real user would and translate the findings into clear, prioritized fixes you can implement or hand to your developer or designer. Ways to work together: 1. Full Website Accessibility Audit (deep review across your site) 2. Homepage-Only Mini Audit (fast check of your most-visited page) 3. PDF Accessibility Conversion (make PDFs usable with screen readers) 4. Alt Text Writing Packages (product photos, homepage images, posts) 5. Email Signature Accessibility Review (fix a common, overlooked barrier) 6. Social Media Accessibility Quick Review (graphics, captions, links, video basics) and more! What you’ll get (always): 1. Plain-language results 2. A prioritized fix list 3. Practical guidance you can use right away Our approach Transparent pricing • Fast turnaround • WCAG-aligned • ADA/Section 508–informed • Bay Area + remote clients If your site is hard to use, it’s hard to grow. Prioritizing accessibility helps more people access your content, services, and opportunities. contact@accessibilityinpractice.com
