Hi Girls!
We met on Saturday, April 7 with Nancy, Gail, Susan and Debra attending. And we're very excited to welcome our newest member, Sharon Patterson!We discussed our latest book, Manhattan Beach by Jennifer Egan. It was a single woman's view of the WWII era with an emphasis on her work, and her family history. Not necessarily a memorable book, but a thoughtful read giving us insight into the period, with a mobster tale thrown into the mix.
Susan brought 4 books for us to choose from for our next meeting, Saturday, June 2. Our choice: The Great Alone by Kristin Hannah.
Susan's other book recommendations included:
The Female Perusion by Meg Wolitzer
The Oracle Year by Charles Soule
The Last Black Unicorn by Tiffany Haddish - Susan warned us about the language. I'm currently listening to it on Audible and she is correct. The language is tough, and Tiffany Haddish's childhood was a train wreck. But what a story! She is now an actress and writer, known for the film Girls Trip and other accomplishments.
Saturday, June 2: Susan will find us a meeting venue. Gail will bring book suggestions.
I'm hoping to see comments and posts on our group blog about what you're reading! Please join in anytime! I have sent an email out that invites you to the blog. But, this is a work in progress. So let me know if you have issues with it.
Thanks!
Debra
