January Meeting

Great discussion once again on A Northern Light. We decided Donnelly tackled a lot of subjects---the role of women, racism, murder, love, family histories, education---seamlessly and with moving prose. Please feel free to add your take on the meeting in the comments!

Up for February is Dancing in Red Shoes Will Kill You (There's been a change in book order). Click onto the title above to find out more about the book. The books have arrived and are in the library---stop in to pick one up after 10:30 A.M. Hanging On To Max by Margaret Bechard should be next. Click onto the link and see the review on Teenreads.com. and you can read the first chapter to whet your appetite.Our next meeting is Monday, Feb. 25. Hope to see you there!

December Meeting

We had a great discussion about Pucker, helped along by a special "Barker's" book that Mrs. DeRaps, Marina and Brittany made. We contemplated why we might ever want to trade our freedom for beauty. I hope the questions they posed will be posted here.

Our next meeting will be January 28. We're reading Jennifer Donnelly's award-winning A Northern Light, a coming-of-age story set in the Adirondacks in 1906. It's truly one of the best books I've read in a while. Come see me for a copy.

Pucker Questions/Comments

Feel free to post your comments on Pucker by Melanie Gideon. Is there anything special you want us to discuss on December 17? Was this book a hit or a miss?

Testing 1, 2, 3, 4

First post! Hey Chicks! If you missed the Smashed meeting, see me for our next book, Pucker. We'll meet on December 17 to talk about it. Hope to see you in the library.
