Trust Your Eyes!

Thank you to Bridget for picking an enjoyable book.  Consensus was we enjoyed this mystery!  While the book itself did not lend itself to a lot of conversation, we managed to find something to talk about it at the Mexican Paradise Cafe!  Heh heh....  Megan volunteered to host the next book club.  We will be voting so I'll have a few polls to do in the next week or so... plan on November meeting before Thanksgiving hits!

August Book Club

Thank you to Laura for selecting a light and enjoyable summer read. Consensus was the book was funny and heart warming.  Even though the ending was a bit convenient, we all enjoyed the ride.  Bridget brought a list for us to vote on at the meeting.  We selected Trust Your Eyes by Linwood Barclay.  I checked the library system and there are 25 available copies available in the Lake Villa / North Suburbs so we shouldn't have to buy it if you don't want to.  The next meeting is Monday Sept 29th - location to be announced.
