August Bookclub News

Dear Bookclub,

This Thursday, August 1st, I will host a discussion for "The Light in the Ruins" by Chris Bohjalian. We never got a chance to discuss the book during our last meeting; it had just been released so many had not yet read it and the opportunity did not arise with the exciting dinner and author presentation. We need to talk! This will be from 5-7ish... RSVP lynnkaufman@gmail.com.

Our official August meeting will be Thursday, August 15th at Julie's to discuss, "Me Before You" by Jojo Moyes. I know, not another book about a British girl hired to care for a quadriplegic....   but be prepared... this one is going to be memorable. Keep your Kleenex handy for a good read awaits.

Please take a look at the NY Times book review:

Hope you can attend!

Christmas in July!

Dear Bookclub,
It is never too early to get your calendar in order, especially for our holiday party. Chuck and Diane Cashion have very graciously offered to host the 2013 celebration on Saturday December 14th at 7 PM!!
Please update your calendar and then you may forget about Christmas again for quite sometime.

No-noel-yet,

LK

An evening with Chris Bohjalian

Dear Bookclub,
We had a great evening July 18 starting with dinner at Herringbone's in La Jolla.
A picture is worth a thousand words - or a 10 line text:

Who is that man??

Why, it's Chris Bohjalian, the author joining us, of course!! Thanks to Diane, who surprised the group, Chris joined us and shared some great stories and literary chat.

After our dinner, we walked the few short blocks to Warwick's to hear Chris present. It was a real treat!


We really never got a chance to discuss the book and I would love to do so if anyone is interested. I would be happy to host in the next couple of weeks... please let me know if you want to join and I will put you in our email loop to arrange a date.

Happy Reading!
