How we all look forward to meeting at Susan's house in December, and sampling her delectable Christmas goodies! A very merry thank you to Susan for welcoming us again this year.
We jumped ahead to make plans for the next several months. In January we'll be meeting on Wednesday the 16th at Lynda's. *This is a change of date.* The book will be The End of Your Life Book Club by Will Schwalbe.
February's bookclub meeting will be on Thursday the 21st at Jane's place. We'll be reading February by Lisa Moore.
On March 28th we'll be at my place (Marian) and the book will be The Headmaster's Wager by Vincent Lam.
In April we'll be reading two books about the experience of stroke: My Stroke of Insight by Jill Bolte Taylor and Left Neglected by Lisa Genova. The date for this meeting is still undecided.
Books also mentioned:
I also recommend browsing through The Millions Year in Reading 2012 where authors tell what they've been reading this year. And catch this list of Bill Gates' best reads of the year.
Finally, the CBC has a list of best Canadian books of the year here.
