These past days, no matter where you were in the country, it felt like summer...and in some places summer with way too much heat! Luckily, reading requires very little physical movement to heat you up ---- I never exerted myself too much turning pages or clicking screens. There are so many wonderful books to read right now…and we are going to be talking about some of them in this newsletter!
We have had some blistering hot days here; summer weather is ahead of the calendar. But it got us in the mood for summer reading! There are sooooo many wonderful books out now and coming this summer --- and this newsletter is featuring some favorites.
My book club met on Monday night, and we all loved Laura Dave’s THE LAST THING HE TOLD ME. Next up, we are reading THE PLOT by Jean Hanff Korelitz. The plot-within-the-plot concept intrigued them. We have been meeting outdoors at various locations; next month will be poolside, or maybe IN the pool, at our house! When we were heading to our cars the other night, someone mentioned that we should do a destination book group getaway. While we quizzed you last month asking if any of your groups have done this kind of a reading retreat, we didn't receive any replies. So we may just have to be trailblazers on this among the ReadingGroupGuides audience.
