July 2023 Bookclub News

 

 

 

Dear Bookclub,

The balmy Bernardo Winery impressed and coddled our gathered group; the perfect setting for an early evening of dinner, wine and discussion. We loved it and planned to repeat the event in August. 

Our talking 'stick', Marcellus, was magnetic, drawing stares and inquiries from neighboring diners and encouraging sharing from our thoughtful readers. Shelby Van Pelt's "Remarkably Bright Creatures" cleverly clung to our hearts with the highly developed characters ensconced in a modern fairy tale. 



Themes of loneliness, 'family' and types of intelligence sparked appreciation of the author's intentions and broadened our scope of empathy to man and creatures, alike. Our bonding widened with bright personal sharing; the photos depict our depth.



Please enjoy these amazing octopus videos....just keep clicking and watching.. you will not be disappointed!
