I think this group has been together for 34 years—I joined in the fall of 2000 when I retired. I read more on this year’s list than probably any other year. Didn’t care much for today’s selection, “Hold Up the Sky” by Patricia Sprinkle, but don’t let that stop you, most of the rest of the group loved it. For next year (begins in September just like school) at 1:30 p.m., except Panera meetings are at 2 p.m., our choices are:
1. September 10—No ordinary time by Goodwin, led by Patty, at Norma’s
2. October 1—How the Scots invented the modern world by Herman, led by Mary, at Mary Lou’s.
3. November 5—Hotel on the corner of Bitter and Sweet by Ford, led by Peggy N. at Marcy’s.
4. December 3—Death comes to Pemberley by James, led by and hosted by Carolyn A.
5. January 7—Kim by Kipling, led by Jean at Panera’s
6. February 4--Sweetness at the bottom of the pie by Bradley, led by Justine at Panera’s
7. March 4—A secret gift by Gup, led by (not sure) at Panera’s
8. April --Girls from Ames by Zaslow, led by Adrienne, at Panera’s
9. May 6—Still Alice by Genova, led by Norma at Carolyn C.
Books that were recommended, but which did not make the cut were Bonhoeffer by Metaxas, There is no alternative by Berlinsky, Pigs have wings by Woodhouse, and God Vincent and the Poet.
