November Book Club: Attachments

Please join us on Tuesday, November 18th, 7:30 at Lucy Robert’s home (1320 Rose Circle) for November’s book club meeting to discuss Rainbow Rowell’s novel, Attachments. 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.
