Through heavy rains, thunder, lightning and even flooded underpasses we made our way to a warm welcome at Wanda's. Thank you for hosting the evening which turned out to be wonderful once we entered damply though your door.
Everyone seemed to appreciate The War that Ended Peace for the information and insights about the deliberate and inadvertent steps that lead to war.
A reminder that our next book is Stoner by John Williams. (Read Julian Barnes on Stoner: the must-read novel of 2013). We'll be meeting at Jane's on November 27th.
We won't be meeting in December but on January 8th our book club will meet at Jan's. The book will be The Mann Booker prize winner The Narrow Road to the Deep North by Richard Flanagan.
Dates and locations were set aside for the future. On February 5th we'll be at Sue's and on March 12th we'll be at Jo's. We didn't choose books for these occasions but thought we might consider reading the winners of the Giller and the Governor General's awards.
