I am going to try to get in a quick post. Did not have my computer last night to write after the meeting. Plus, I have a puppy to cuddle! Our October book was, The Book Thief by Markus Zusak. This book is not for the faint of heart. Tough subject. Tough read. I did not finish it before the meeting. I finally finished it last night.
The Book Thief is a little girl during the war. She lives in Germany. It is a story of Hitler's destruction. The book is narrated by Death. Now you can see what I am talking about, tough read. It is a dark, dark story.
I gave the book a rating of 2. I was harder on it than I should have been. I was very frustrated by the writing style. The author jumped around so much. What we have discovered is, most dark books give us a great discussion. This book was no exception. We had a fantastic meal. We had a wonderful discussion. We have a new member. I missed the Dream Maker!
Next month we celebrate our 3 year anniversary. Our November book is: The Light Between Oceans by ML Stedman.
I promise to do better in blogging.
