I am thoroughly enjoying my book club that formed about 4 months ago. We met to discuss our latest book Monday night. It was a wonderful evening full of delicious food and vigorous conversation. After each meeting so far, I can barely wait until the next one, though the wait is part of what makes the evening so special. We discussed A Year in Provence. It was different than the kind of books I usually read. There was no plot, just a detailed account of a couple's first year in their new home in France. They had moved from Britain to a favorite vacation spot of theirs. I felt as if I had been on a vacation to France after reading the book, and I felt more cultured than when I began. It made me want to travel and enjoy my own interesting occurances and experiences.
Our next book is called The Secret Life of Bees. I don't know much about it yet, but am looking forward to diving in. Meanwhile, our book club is trying to come up with a name for ourselves. I'll keep you posted on that.
