Book Club usually meets at 4:30 pm on the 3rd Thursday of the month at
Paneras (Spanish Springs) in the back.
Book to be discussed:
The Magnificent Lives of Marjorie Post: A Novel by Allison-Patak
Mrs. Post, the President and First Lady are here to see you. . . . So begins another average evening for Marjorie Merriweather Post. Presidents have come and gone, but she has hosted them all. Growing up in the modest farmlands of Battle Creek, Michigan, Marjorie was inspired by a few simple rules: always think for yourself, never take success for granted, and work hard—even when deemed American royalty, even while covered in imperial diamonds. Marjorie had an insatiable drive to live and love and to give more than she got. From crawling through Moscow warehouses to rescue the Tsar’s treasures to outrunning the Nazis in London, from serving the homeless of the Great Depression to entertaining Roosevelts, Kennedys, and Hollywood’s biggest stars, Marjorie Merriweather Post lived an epic life few could imagine.
We also thought it would be fun to do what we did for last December's meeting, meet at Glenview Country Club for Christmas cheer and appetizers. I would need to make reservations so I will need a count by at least the week before December 13th. Please let Cathy or I know if you would like to join us. Reservations will be necessary.
Hope everyone has a wonderful and grateful Thanksgiving
