Book Club

Hi everyone,

Our last book club meeting was about the book “A Most English Princess” by Clare McHugh. We agreed that the book was very long and very historical. We discussed this dysfunctional family and how its members might have and did change history.

Our next book is “The Secret Life of Sunflowers” by Marta Molnar. The book intertwines the story of Emsley Wilson, a contemporary auctioneer, with the story of Johanna Bonger, Vincent van Gogh’s sister-in-law. Emsley discovers Johanna’s diary while sorting through her grandmother’s belongings, leading her to learn about Johanna’s role in making Vincent Van Gogh’s art familiar.

The next book club meeting will be on Sunday, June 22nd, at 12:30 in the TBT library.

Feel free to bring lunch or a snack.

Quote: “If you hear a voice within say you cannot do something, then by all means, do that thing, and that voice will be silenced.”

The following book club meeting will be on Sunday, August 24th, at 12:30 in the TBT library. The book is “The Traveling Cat Chronicles” by Hiro Arikawa. It is a book about friendship, family and compassion. It is also about the close bond between pet and human.

The annual Sisterhood meeting will follow the book club on August 24th at about 2:00. Sisterhood members, it is important that you attend this meeting.

I look forward to seeing you on June 22nd.
Carol
