Dinner at Claudia's and Next Month's Plan

The Hummingbird's Daughter, by Luis Alberto Urrea was rated 4.63 at our last meeting. Thank you Claudia for a wonderful Mexican dinner, and to all of you for interesting conversation. I feel so fortunate that we have such a congenial yet diverse and outspoken book club group. I think it is such a great opportunity for growth. I certainly feel challenged to read with more awareness in order to be able to express my reaction to the books we read. After finishing The Hummingbird's Daughter, I decided to read another book by Urrea - his nonfiction The Devil's Highway.

Our next book, chosen by Claudia has arrived. It is The Help, by Kathryn Stockett. Please stop by the library or let me know if you need to have it mailed to you. We planned our next meeting to happen at Gerry's house, on Monday, April 11. I will let Annette know.

Cross your fingers for warm spring days!
