September Meeting (Sorry...not feeling very creative with the title today).

Ok...so I know that I suck and neglected to post about August's meeting...and as quick recap, we read "The Summerhouse". I love you all!

Last month we read "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil", which everyone pretty much agreed that any book about murder, sex/homosexuality/cross-dressing, money, jealousy, and a whole lot of crazy people shouldn't really have any oppurtunity to be occasionally boring, but alas, this book did just that. However, it was pretty engaging, as you reallt can't screw up a book about the aforementioned subjects TOO much. (But this one came pretty close). Also, we have decided to keep track of the person who is suggesting the books in the future, so that we know who to talk to about the plot a bit before we vote on books in the future. We will also be keeping a new list here on the blog of books that we are interested in reading, but no one has read yet, so that those of you who are speedy readers can have something to report back to everyone about. :)

As an FYI, for those of you who read "The Shining" we will be having the additional meeting on October 21st. Time and location forthcomming. (We will be going out to eat, so we will decide as the date nears. My suggestion is to go the haunted Godfather's Pizza in Ogden...but I know that this is a really long drive for most of you.)

Next Month we will be reading "The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde". It is a VERY short one, so this would be a really good month to do some additional reading and tell us when is good. I love you all, and look forward to seeing you all next month. :)

Speaking of reading ahead, I read Decembers book and really loved. It was so great! Well, except for the couple of sexual encounters that I feel would have been better if left more as innuendo than described somewhat explicitly. Otherwise I totally connected to the book and will probably read it again at some point in the future.
