November 2011

This month we met at Chopstix in Perry Hall to discuss our latest book,
Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet by Jamie Ford. 

We also welcomed 2 new faces to the group - Marcia and Dorsey.  After some yummy Chinese food and some lively discussion (Penn State scandal anyone?), we jumped in to share our thoughts about the book.  Overall, the concensus was that we enjoyed it.  We discussed many of the characters in depth and expressed our wish that the author had written a sequel about Keiko's life.

We voted (many times) on our next book!  After weighing book lengths (nothing too long for the upcoming holidays) and subject matter (nothing too "down" for the holidays) and considering suggestions listed on sites for ..."If you like this book, try...", we finally made a decision using the fairest method we know--flipping a coin.  A winner was chosen! We will be reading

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

Our next meeting will be December 10th, so get reading!

No one brought a camera so we relied on cell phones for pictures of this month's meeting.  Check them out.
