As we have all been fully vaccinated for a while we dared to meet indoors this month, and it was quite a treat. Jan's condo overlooking the city was a marvellous location. Book club discussions are certainly enhanced by sharing wine, snacks and some decadent butter tarts. A big thank you to Jan for hosting. There was so much more we could have said about Greenwood but we seemed to be distracted by catching up with each other's lives. In the circumstances who can blame us?
Next month we plan to read Emma Donoghue's comic novel, Akin. We will gather at Susan's on December 14th at 1 pm if pandemic concerns don't force us back to zoom.
Thank you friends. This is a special surprise. I'm a little overwhelmed. |
