The Summer Book Club met at 7:00 in Flip Flopz
on Sept. 11, 2014.
There
are usually about 5-6 of us who discuss books
we have read or are reading now.
Patsy
discussed "Wolf Whistle" by Lewis Nordan.
It is a novel based on actual
events--the lynching of Emmett Till, a 14 year old black child, in Money, Miss.
It is a fascinating look at racial relations in the South
in the 1950-60's.
Patsy
also read "The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry" by Gabrielle Zevin, This book
describes the importance of a small bookstore in a small town to the people who
live there. Amazing things happen to the bookstore owner--things which change
his life and the life of the town.
In addition, Patsy read "Rain Girl", a fascinating mystery with many ins
and outs. It is difficult to put down.
Pam read "The Burgess Boys" by Olive Kitteridge. It tells of the
problems caused when refugees from Somalia settle in a small town. Pam also
read "Ghost Bride" by Yanaze Choo.
The next meeting of the Summer Book Club will be Wed., Oct. 15th at 7:00 in Flip Flopz.
