May Book Club Book Changed

The book for May has changed. The following is the new information:

The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer & Annie Barrows.

Synopsis

"I wonder how the book got to Guernsey? Perhaps there is some sort of secret homing instinct in books that brings them to their perfect readers." January 1946: London is emerging from the shadow of the Second World War, and writer Juliet Ashton is looking for her next book subject. Who could imagine that she would find it in a letter from a man she's never met, a native of the island of Guernsey, who has come across her name written inside a book by Charles Lamb....

As Juliet and her new correspondent exchange letters, Juliet is drawn into the world of this man and his friends--and what a wonderfully eccentric world it is. The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society--born as a spur-of-the-moment alibi when its members were discovered breaking curfew by the Germans occupying their island--boasts a charming, funny, deeply human cast of characters, from pig farmers to phrenologists, literature lovers all.

Juliet begins a remarkable correspondence with the society's...

March Book Club

For those of you who like to plan ahead or read ahead, here is the info for March's Book Club... On March 30th, 7:00pm we will be reading and discussing:

The Book Thief by Markus Zusak

Synopsis:
It's just a small story really, about among other things: a girl, some words, an accordionist, some fanatical Germans, a Jewish fist-fighter, and quite a lot of thievery...

Set during World War II in Germany, Markus Zusak's groundbreaking new novel is the story of Liesel Meminger, a foster girl living outside of Munich. Liesel scratches out a meager existence for herself by stealing when she encounters something she can't resist--books. With the help of her accordion-playing foster father, she learns to read and shares her stolen books with her neighbors during bombing raids as well as with the Jewish man hidden in her basement before he is marched to Dachau.

This is an unforgettable story about the ability of books to feed the soul.

Again, these books can be checked out at the library, bought at a discount online: http://www.half.com/, borrowed from neighbors/friends, etc. Happy reading!!

October Sharing Circles

We took a break in the summertime from some of our sharing circles. Our Yum Yum group is ready to start up again with it's new group leader, Judith Zeits.

Yum Yum - Wed, October 7th @ 7:00pm at Judith's house.
The theme for that night will be "Italian". So bring anything you make related to that culture. For those of you that haven't been before, each month Yum Yum is held on the first Wednesday of the month. It rotates houses based on a volunteer system, and has a theme each month. We'd like you to bring something to share, so try a new recipe or bring an old standby that relates to the theme of each month. Sometimes we have all main dishes, and sometimes all desserts, but you definitely won't go home hungry. The purpose of this group is to try new recipes and expand our palates. You will get to taste what everyone else brings, and go home with lots of new recipes. If you absolutely can't bring anything, (remember this is a cooking/baking group), call Judith to bring paper goods or drinks. If you have to come late that's alright too, we are usually chatting until 8:30.

We need volunteers to host November-appetizers, and December-breakfast & brunch. Please email sharingcircles@gmail.com if you need address or phone numbers. See you there!

We are also looking for those willing to host other sharing circles. Please email us to let us know your interests and we will group you with others of the same interests. See What do you like to do? post for details.
