i have always wanted to be in a book club, so i finally started one with a friend.
we have 11 great women (all neighbours/Islanders) and so far it seems to be working really well. we've had 5 meetings so far (we've read The Book Of Negroes, Olive Kitteridge, Sea of Poppies, Howards End, The End of Food, and The Help.) we meet every month- the person who hosts suggests the book and also provides the food and drink.
today we met on my friend Nina's sailboat (her family of 4 lives on the boat 7 or 8 months of the year) and her husband sailed us around the Island while we chatted, ate, and drank wine.
Lovely!
