February with Lisa

Lovely food and ladies and lots of discussion. We were missing Roz and admittedly I didn't finish the book still we had good insight to  Inside the O'Briens.  In particular Lisa shared her own family experience with Huntington's, certainly a heart breaking disease.

The book was compelling and difficult, yet the characters were so interesting and full of resilience. 

Next up from Kelly for April 24

2016 January

Lively, lengthy and lovely discussion on our selection - Ordinary Grace. Each of us liked the book -- possibly for different reasons. Still it stirred a chord in our hearts.

Personally, I plan to read one of the author's other novels, he is truly a talented writer. It was noted in a biography that his favorite book was To Kill a Mockingbird, a coming of age theme as well.

Sorry I have no pictures, if you do please send to me and I will be happy to post. What a lovely group of book club ladies. We  learn so much from one another! Thank you, you thank you for fun, food and festivity.

Next up Lisa has selected a book by the author of Still Alice:
