Book Club usually meets at 4:30 pm on the 3rd Thursday of the month at Paneras (Spanish Springs) in the back.
Eight of us enjoyed a really pleasant dinner and discussion at Glenview CC this past Thursday. We talked about our various Thanksgiving celebrations and upcoming plans for Christmas. We did manage to discuss The Incredible Life of Marjorie Merriweather Post. We all agreed we liked the book very much and would recommend it. She certainly had an incredible life and an amazing business sense. She was also very generous with her wealth and shared it generously especially during America's most dismal times. If you haven't read, I highly recommend it.
We plan to meet again Thursday Jan. 15, 4:30 pm at Panera's Spanish Springs. Our book choice is
The Diamond Eye by Kate Quinn
Based on a true story, The Diamond Eye is a haunting novel of heroism born of desperation, of a mother who became a soldier, of a woman who found her place in the world and changed the course of history forever.
