January Book Club.....Then Again

Then Again....maybe not so much. The general consensus on this book was that it only skimmed the surface of Ms. Keaton's life and didn't dive in and give any of the details that would convince us that Diane Keaton was a passionate, interesting person.

We were so glad that almost everyone made it! We missed Janet, and of course, Amy. Sandy joined us after returning from her world travels. Nice to catch up!

Marie served a wonderful seafood lasagna that included shrimp and scallops in a lovely white sauce. The fresh salad was wonderful with feta dotting the top. And dessert, as usual, was fantastic - fresh fruit and berries with a luscious sauce and a slushy frozen surprise. Wine and conversation flowed.

We decided that we'll be reading Stephen King's novel 11/22/63. The hardcover is 849 pages, but let's not let that intimidate us! It is available from amazon for $17.49 for prime members and the kindle version is available with AUDIO AND VIDEO for $16.99.

Half.com has some gently used copies for as cheap as $14.99.

Rachel will coordinate the next meeting. Looking forward to our next gathering likely sometime before Easter, giving us plenty of time to dig in to this one.

Thank you, Marie, for a very lovely evening.

See you all soon. Keep warm!
Happy Reading,
Katie
