we had a book club meeting last night. i enjoy a lot of the ladies there, but they always seem to choose pricey restaurants. i'm enjoying the book club, so i need to work on budgeting for a couple glasses of wine and just eating beforehand.
New books for the next 3 months:
February - The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer
March 2013 - The Lacuna by Barbara Kingsolver
April 2013 - Prague winter by Madeleine Albright
one of the women has read a lot of the same books as i have. she seems to have similar inclinations, but her opinion on what is good differs just a little bit from mine. it has only been a few months, but so far i have been safely able to say that if she *loves* it, i will enjoy it but not love it. this came up because i read 'The Lacuna' already and though i liked the story, i thought it was a bit over the top and i was ready to be done with it. she said something like that it was "everything a book could be".
