Limbo Meeting Reminder

Hi everyone!

A reminder that our next book club meeting will take place on Thursday, February 17, at 8:30 p.m. at Sister's Brew. We're reading Limbo, a memoir by A. Manette Ansay, and I will be leading the discussion.

This is a relatively quick read, but it's hard to find. So I ordered two extra copies from Amazon.com, and Katie R. has one as well. If you want a copy, email me at katie_in_logan [at] yahoo [dot] com or just add a comment to this post (comments get emailed to me as well).

Can't wait to see you in a couple weeks!

Bookish Women Recommendations

Robert and Lynette Carlson recommend Princess Academy by Shannon Hale. It was a sweet coming of age story. It had a surprising plot twist! We both enjoyed it.
Susannah Warr recommends A Girl Named Zippy: Growing Up Small in Mooreland Indiana by Haven Kimmel. The author recounts her experiences growing up as she viewed them as a child. Several stories made me laugh out loud. It was so fun to read!
April Strawn recommends Into Thin Air by Jon Krakauer. Like Into the Wild, this book documents (albeit, probably exaggerates) a treacherous climb of Mount Everest. Inspired me to go on my own mountain climbing trip.
Susannah Warr recommends Skeletons on the Zahara by Dean King. It is a true story which takes place in 1815. Captain James Riley and the crew of the Commerce get shipwrecked off the coast of Africa. They are captured by nomads and made slaves in the Sahara desert. It is an incredible story of hardship and survival.
Katie Langston recommends The House on Mango Street. A gorgeously-written book by Sandra Cisneros describes the coming-of-age of a teenage girl in an inner city Chicago neighborhood.
