Contemplating What to Read Next
Thank you, Jarby, for a splendid Book Club!
What a nice refreshing evening, gathered around Jarby's living room and talking - about the book - and other things, as well. So nice to catch up with everyone. We were so pleased to have Louise join us, along with her new hip! Looking beautiful, Louise!
Sarah's Key gave us some nice discussion points - the most talked about being - how much should one person intrude upon another's reality? Should the reporter have projected her own need for closure onto anybody else? In some instances, reality is the only way to truly move on and through a situation. In others, perhaps remaining blind to pain is best.
Along with some nice wine, apple crisp and coffee, we discussed some current books that look interesting perhaps for next time including:
Stephen King's 11/22/63: A Novel
Erin Morgenstern's The Night Circus
Diane Keaton's Then Again
If you have a particular book to recommend, please email the group with the title and author.
I don't remember anyone offering to host next time, we are in need of a location, as well.
It was very nice to have dessert, a few light snacks and wine. We were able to enjoy Jarby's company and she was able to really participate in the discussion!
Please chime in and let us know what you'd like to read next. What are you all reading and enjoying?
Happy Cyber Monday to all, let's have a great holiday season and look forward to Book Club in January.
