Thank you Kris and Scott

Not wanting to base our meal on those "enjoyed" (endured) by book character John William ("The Other"), we opted for a 1970's themed pot luck.  Delicious with several "family favorites" included!  We enjoyed our time together sharing at the Boisen's lovely home.

Again, mixed reactions to our selection.  The author loved long descriptive sentences, so long you could loose your train of thought.  The book's main characters graduated from Seattle's Roosevelt HS in 1974; the setting and the time-frame prompted many memories.  A few of us did not feel the actions of the story rang true.  It did open discussion on friendships and living with our choices throughout life.

Mark your calendars:

• July 21, Entiat Library, 5:30 - 7pm, come to the film screening "He Named Me Malala".  
• Kris requested volunteers to read a portion of the best-selling children's book "BFG" by Roald Dahl and then participate in a "book club discussion" with her 4th grade class in September.
• I have not updated the info on our next meeting.  I will check with Barbara. Once details are finalized I will post the information, so stay tuned!

Don't forget, we need to give Esther the titles of two books we would like to read.  This will give the book club coordinator options for setting up our on-going reading list.  Once our list is updated, I will bring our list up-to-date on this blog.
