Meeting: January 9, 2014

The book club had a wonderful January meeting.  There were only four people attending; but, a very enjoyable foursome.  We discussed the book Grace (Eventually): Thoughts on Faith by Anne Lamott.

Ann Larkin was the expert on Lamott's writings.  Ann brought her lap top and we watched a clip of Anne Lamott being interviewed and talking about her writings------very interesting. Annie had read other books (fiction and non fiction) by Lamott;  so she is very well versed on her books.  We discussed the book and how we felt about it and whether we enjoyed it and to what degree. 

Attending:  Christine Berth, Ann Larkin, Ellen Bowes, Judy Lee

The next book we are going to read is The Book Thief by Markus Zusak.  Judy stopped at the library today.  Jessica will send for the two copies of The Book Thief that are available for checkout, in the system, today.  She is also reserving the other 8-12 copies that can be gotten throughout the system.  She will e-mail Judy as each comes to the library and Judy will send out a "heads up" to us.




Our next meeting will be February 13th at Ellen Bowes' at 6:30pm.
