We had a lovely early evening meeting at Esther's home last Friday. Sorry that everyone couldn't make it, but very glad that Adrienne could join us again. Esther prepared a wonderful meal, as always, and homemade ice cream for desert! Thank you very much Esther. Since the meeting was held on a Friday and Esther didn't have to work, we tried something new by meeting at 4:30pm instead of 6pm. This made it possible for some to arrive straight from work without having to drive home - up river - first. It also meant that we were able to finish early and still have time to do things in the evening. We had an interesting discussion of Ann Patchett's book "State of Wonder" and it received a 5.13 rating.
Our next meeting is planned for Friday, November 2nd, 4:30pm at Claudia's home. We are currently reading "I Remember Nothing" by Nora Ephron, a compilation of short stories dealing with aging - of which we can all relate. This looks to be a fun and quick read. Check with Esther if you need a copy.
Also, our December meeting will be held at Nancy's home. We will pick a date at the November meeting. This will be our book exchange as well as the children's book collection.
Can't believe that this year is almost over - yikes! Time flies, but I'm glad we all manage to spare a bit for reading, sharing and enjoying friends!
