Please note

The meeting at my house on Fauquier Street will be postponed a week to the third Thursday of August. So you should have plenty of time to read the book. Please advise me via email if you want me to order you a book from Jabberwocky. So many of you download books or use the library these days that I don't want to inconvenience a book shop owner. Thanks.

The Art of Enjoyment

Thank you Erin, for hosting last night. It was a "multimedia" discussion of a wonderful book. The food was fantastic, as was the evening. For those who were unable to attend, we watched the author speak about his inspiration for the story and heard Billy Collins read his poem, "The Revenant".  






Kathleen will be hosting Sip & Read on August 18th. The book we'll be discussing is "The Kids Are Alright" by Liz, Diana, Amanda & Dan Welch.


I have updated the blog so we can all post. I suggest that, unless there's a special announcement, we keep the posting to those who are about to host or who have just hosted. If we keeps our "thanks" in the comments sections, we won't all be inundated with emails.
