| An evening at Diane's Sweet Spot West |
Dear Bookclub,
Diane's Adorno Place easily transformed into a sports bar and we easily dove into the charade, imbibing her authentic bar bites, delicious wine and finely crafted cocktails. Discussion of the Amy Poeppel's Sweet Spot skipped along lightly, keeping to the cadence the book invited. We all enjoyed, agreeing it was a good summer read, excusing spots of ridiculousness and keeping tight to the spots of sweetness. Melinda's mean-spirited personality and the dumping of Felicity's baby can be easily overlooked with the clever images of Lauren's artwork, Leo's parenting style, Evelyn's transformation and laugh-out-loud descriptions of antics and dialogue. Diane wowed us with one of her clever high-tech shares, and we enjoyed a unison viewing of Amy Poeppel's awesome trailer for the book:
Our little group was delighted to have Laura H. join us and she graciously shared her 'happenings' as she and Lynne stopped by after an outing to Chuck E. Cheese. North County bar-hopping at its finest!
Diane's suggestions for an upcoming read:
"The Lady in Gold: The Extraordinary Tale of Gustav Klimt's Masterpiece, Portrait of Adele Bloch-Baurer" Ann-Marie O'Conner
"Grant and Twain: The Story of an American Friendship" Mark Perry *chosen
"The Heart's Invisible Furies" John Boyne
Up next:
Happy reading,
LK
