As always, we had a lively book club meeting, this time at Six Burner Bistro in Plymouth. Thanks to Marlena for organizing it. The book was Ines of my Soul by Isabel Allende. There was a range of likes and dislikes, from complaints that to book was too much of a "bodice ripping romantic novel" to those that really enjoyed the read and enjoyed learning about the history. Most of us felt the book had too much brutality in it, but we all realize that unfortunately that is the nature of war, in general. Stephanie brought up a great array of discussion topics. For those of you on Facebook, Mary Jo has posted some great pictures from the meeting.
Here's the schedule for upcoming book club meetings:
Sun, Sept 26: "The Help" by Kathryn Stockett, hosted by Mary Jo and Ann F. at The Colonel Spencer Inn
Sun, Oct 31: "A Tale of Two Valleys" by Alan Deutschman, hosted by Joy
Because of the holidays, the Nov and Dec meetings are combined, and will be held Dec 5th in conjunction with Kathy's "Be an elf" weekend. After that, our next meeting will be at the end of January.
Bev is responsible for submitting the next list of book choices (Submitted before the next meeting, then to be discussed Dec 5).
