Happy 8th Anniversary!!!

We have a book for August!
 
Saving CeeCee Honeycutt by Beth Hoffman comes highly recommended by Molly Koch and Sarah Ohki!
~ from goodreads.com:
Steel Magnolias meets The Help in this Southern debut novel
sparkling with humor, heart, and feminine wisdom.
This will be a book with much opportunity for discussion.

**8/16**Update****
Our August meeting will be
Tuesday, August 30, 2011.
7:30 PM at Joy's home
It will be an excellent opportunity to share book titles and suggestions for the rest of the year.
We will meet at 7:30PM at my home. Email me for directions! joyfulpie@aol.com

For example:
I'm reading this now, it was passed on to me by Sally Holstein. It's astounding and very special.
**update 8/6/2011** Really sweet book and a quick read.

Sarah's Key by Tatiana de Rosna 
This suggestion is from our very own Sarah Ohki. I've had this on my 'to read' shelf for a couple years and think this will be a captivating read. *On a side note, this book was recently made into a movie and is in select theaters now.

Mockingbird by Kathryn Erskine certainly looks intriguing and is a suggestion from Rachel McGovern. It's also been on my 'to read' list and one I think would garner some fascinating discussion at book club.

It would be wonderful to have the remainder of 2011's book choices mapped out. I am especially interested in what anyone would have us read as an October(Halloween) book or December(Christmas) book.

The possibilities are truly endless! I am so excited to get together with everyone again!
Happy Reading!!
