We had a great meeting - really fun discussions lasting until after 10PM! Most everyone enjoyed last month's read - Bitter Blood and we had a good discussion about the real-life murder intrigue with local roots.
We missed several of the ladies who weren't able to attend last minute. (And we didn't snap a photo while Jean was here!)
Jean is leaving first thing in the morning to travel with her husband to Galapagos!! We look forward to some photos!
Our next read is a "Victorian Classic" - Middlemarch by George Eliot - a book set in a fictional British town in the late 1820's. (The book is actually written by a woman - Mary Ann Evans - who used the pen-name George Eliot because women at the time were excluded from intellectual circles).
It's a big book! But since we typically skip the November meeting due to Thanksgiving, we have almost 2 months before the next meeting.
It's widely available - so you can get it for free to read on your Kindle or E-reader from the Gutenberg - https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/145
The December meeting will be at Sharon's on Thursday Dec 16th and will be a "dirty Santa" affair. So bring a fun wrapped but untagged gift to share - $10-$20 limit.
