THE BOOK PARTY




We had a fantastic night of fun and foolery last night.

Here are some of the titles of the books that were selected, stolen, and cried over:

  • A Mercy
  • Dewey
  • Edgar Sawtelle
  • Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society
  • It's Not Quite What I Was Planning
  • Holidays on Ice
  • 3 Cups of Tea
  • Alex and Me
  • America's Hidden History
  • Hugo Cabret
  • Arsonist's Guide to Writer's Homes in New England
  • On Chesil Beach

Gerald got a book and I can't remember the title. I have a feeling I may be missing a few others as well.

REMEMBER: We'll have another meeting in January. Rise, can we come back to your space???

Happiest news of the night: As I walked into my house, I was thinking about how I didn't get to take any potato salad home with me, and I was feeling a little sad about that and thinking that I wanted to eat some potato salad, but I would never get the chance, when my doorbell rang and there was a favored tawler with the potato salad, extending it to me in solidarity and friendship. So, the old maxim, be careful what you wish for, does not apply in this case. I say, "Wish away!"
