May Book Club: One Plus One

Please join us on Tuesday, May 23, at 7:30, at Megan Watson’s home (1812 Tyburn Lane) for May’s book club meeting to discuss Jojo Moyes’s novel One Plus One. Even if (or perhaps especially if) the last thing you read was Good Night, Moon, please come for the laughter, food and drinks. I know this has been written often, but if you don’t have time to read the book please come anyway. Reading the book may be an easy way to create a common connection, but forming friendships certainly doesn’t involve required reading.

April Book Club: Retro fun!

Monday, April 24, 7:30 p.m.

You know how some months you just don’t have time to read the book for book club? You’re always welcome to come anyway, but for April’s meeting at Stephanie Cooper’s house (161 Highview Dr), she’s picked a fast, fun read that will take us back to our younger years: Stacey and the Missing Ring by Ann M. Martin. So you can go eat junk food at someone else’s house – just like when you were babysitting! Hope to see you there.
