Last night at Maureen's

We had a pleasant evening - great snacks (yummy cake!), excellent wine and lively discussion about Room among other things.  Thank you Maureen!




Three dates and locations were reserved:  April 26th at Wanda's, May 19th at Jo's and June 23rd at Jan's.

The book for April will be Brooklyn by Colm Toibin and in May we'll read by Let the Great World Spin by Colum McCann.
I believe we left the book selection for June until later.

• Three Day Road by Joseph Boyden
• The Imperfectionists by Tom Rachman
