November/December 2012 - A Winter Dream

Our Book Club met on November 30 at the Alexander House to discuss "A Winter Dream" by Richard Paul Evans, combined with our annual holiday social.  The average ratings for the book were in the 4-6 range.  The group agreed that it was quick and easy to read and enjoyed by most, but some commented that it was unbelievable in parts and also a little predictable.  In the interest of full disclosure, there wasn't a lot of time spent in discussion after rating the book.  Instead, our conversations turned to family updates, other books, movies, the weather (of course) and generally just enjoying the warmth of friendships, good laughter and a nice meal.  We also had the opportunity to welcome a new member to the group as Rochelle Kovarik joined us for the first time.  Welcome Shelly!

The book club selection for January is "Call the Midwife" by Jennifer Worth.  The location and date are to be determined.

Wishing all my book clubs friends a Blessed Holiday Season.  There are many more good books to read in 2013!
