Combinations and permutations make for new and interesting ideas and experiences. Like the variety of different authors and genres, the variety in our attendance stimulates and fuels the bookclub personality that 'are we'. Last night's gathering at Barb's nurtured a discussion unlike any other given that only one of our five had finished the book, one had not read it, three were deep into the woodsy pages; that book kept on giving and giving as conversation developed a labyrinth of ideas and concepts. This without any revelation of the mysteries. While feasting on Barb's luscious cheeses and salads, promises were made to discuss again when the readers had all journeyed to the end. Certainly tantalizing to any who have not considered the read, take on the web of characters and be prepared to be entertained and provoked.
Three great suggestions from Barb:
"LaRose" Louise Erdrich
 |
| Barb presenting |
"Trauma Shame and the Power of Love" Christopher Pelloski
 |
| Martha pondering our choices |
"Miller Valley" Anna Quindlen *chosen

| Karen with the chosen one |
 |
| Lynn T!! |
** Please note that Martha will be hosting in October and we'll be meeting on Tuesday instead of Thursday on that third week of the month: October 18 instead of October 20... in your calendars now please :)
