Sharing at the Waterfront

Great teamwork at Judy's lakeside home, by neighbors Judy and Chris P serving up great panini(s) for our Book Club gathering; extra bonus celebrating Debbie G's birthday with cake and cheesecake.

Thanks to Claudia for a concise summary shared, although she couldn't be here to attend discussion of "Our Souls at Night": This is a deceivingly simple story, simply written. No flowery descriptions of everything. Simple dialogue, a conversation, easy language, no quotes.
In fact, CP pointed out there weren't even explanation points, the conversation was so matter of fact. Most rated the book a four and wished for a different ending., although glad for the time this couple had the companionable, loving relationship. We all have a notion about how marriage should be, but it is different for each. Esther reported to Barbara that a movie is coming out, starring Robert Redford and Jane Fonda, if you can imagine!
