BOOKS for the Book Club year!

Thanks for the great meeting Wednesday! I'm soooooooooooo excited to get reading! 

But first, a few helpful asides:

If you order used books from Better World Books, you'll probably want to leave yourself a couple of weeks to receive them. Of course, I wholeheartedly encourage you to patronize all our great Montpelier bookstores, which support your bookish neighbors while allowing you to procrastinate. :) 

Jess is going to get us copies of "To Kill a Mockingbird" from the VT Humanities Council as part of their 2011 Vermont Reads initiative, so we don't have to worry about buying that one.

The books listed are the ones we'll be discussing each month, so you'll want to procure these in time to have them read for the meeting. I know, I'm over-explaining.  :)  

We're going to have a food theme for our December meeting- everything has to involve lemon. Oh, the endless possibilities tantalize and delight!

So, without further ado, here are our picks for this Book Club season...! 

December 1, 2010:
The Little Giant of Aberdeen County by Tiffany Baker
Potluck: Bring a dish that involves lemon!

January 5, 2011: Annual Book Club Post-Holiday Potluck! Bring a dish that has a story- something your mother or grandmother made, your father's famous french toast, the hot chocolate your sister makes for you! The idea is to share both special foods, and the reasons that they matter to you. We're not reading a book for this meeting since the holidays are soooooooooo busy.


February 2, 2011: Confections of a Closet Master Baker by Gesine Bullock-Prado 

March 2, 2011: Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier

April 6, 2011: To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee (remember, we can borrow copies of this from the VT Humanities Council!)










May 4, 2011: The Nightingales of Troy by Alice Fulton

June 1, 2011: My Life in France by Julia Child











Happy reading! See you in December!
