October Book

Sarah Williams will be hosting Book Club for October. She has chosen [with a little help :)] to read "A Tree Grows in Brooklyn" by Betty Smith. And yes, that really is the author's name. It is definitely a classic and should be readily available at the library.

An Austen Addiction

We had a great time at Carrie's house on Tuesday night discussing "Austenland." We enjoyed a rousing discussion of the book and Jane Austen's characters, while nibbling delicately on wraps and chocolate chip cookies. Those who attended were myself, Carrie, Jolyn, Lauren, Audrey, Laura, Anne, Sarah, Susie, and a new member of our Ward -- Robynn Stolte. The defining question of the night was, "Which is better, a fantasy world which you create (such as romance in Austen's world), or reality? Would you grow tired of your fantasy?" Discuss amongst yourselves!
