The School of Essential Ingredients - May Book

Hi Ladies! I read this little book last summer and devoured it! I hope you will love it too! It's full of some interesting people and lots of YUMMY food! To make the meeting a little more interesting, I'm asking that you all bring an ingredient that is "you," or maybe just an ingredient that you just can't live without in your kitchen.

The meeting will be

Book club Hosting!

Hey girls! I finished the hosting list. I know there are some people that aren't on that list as we have so many that have joined..which is AWESOME! I tried to put people on there that have never done it before or haven't in awhile. I know that everyone will get a chance and next year we will have those that didn't get to this time...or if anyone else has any suggestions on how we host???? I think picking them ahead of time worked really well, but if anyone thinks something may work better than please take over! I just hope everyone feels welcome and has a good time. If you haven't hosted and really want to let us know. We can always change it around! Thanks and happy reading!

February Book Club

Hey Girls! February's book is The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho! Here's a book review:

"Paulo Coelho's enchanting novel has inspired a devoted following around the world. This story, dazzling in its simplicity and wisdom, is about an Andalusian shepherd boy named Santiago who travels from his homeland in Spain to the Egyptian desert in search of treasure buried in the Pyramids. Along the way he meets a Gypsy woman, a man who calls himself king, and an Alchemist, all of whom point Santiago in the direction of his quest. No one knows what the treasure is, or if Santiago will be able to surmount the obstacles along the way But what starts out as a journey to find worldly goods turns into a meditation on the treasures found within. Lush, evocative, and deeply humane, the story of Santiago is art eternal testament to the transforming power of our dreams and the importance of listening to our hearts."

I chose this book because I think it has a great message- and it's a quick read- under 200 pages! I have reserved 10 copies through the library- so they will be on hold under my name!! We'll review it on Wednesday, February 24 at 7 p.m. at my house!
