Lets get to the book. For May we read The Invisible Bridge
A little side story – Two weeks before book club was to meet, I went to visit my grandmothers for the weekend and I left the book by mistake. It was on loan from the library and had to be returned when my mother delivered it back to me. I had barely scratched the 600 pages and book club was a week away! I had to get back on the list for another copy. Lets just say there are a few rules in our book club (Ahem.. I am the book club leader..) and you can NOT show up unless you have read the book. Well, what can I say?? I am a stickler for rules. Luckily, I got another copy and was able to speed read the rest of the book.It was unanimous – we all loved the book! It was a fun discussion and a very good choice. Thank you Colleen! And for those of you interested, Colleen made a delicious ice cream pie for dessert – not 100% chocolate, but just enough!
Other titles we have read and I have enjoyed:

May 20, 2011 at 1:43 pmUh oh – sound like you had a renegade who didn’t follow the rules!! Sounds like a great group and I’m sure many other topics sneak in to your literary discussions!! I think your future book club posts should include a recipe for the dessert!!

May 22, 2011 at 7:30 amI swear I posted a comment yesterday! I didn’t say anything exciting; just that I’d not be allowed in your book club because I fail on the most basic rule.
I don’t cook. At all. I leave it all to my husband who is better at it and quicker at it! Gone are the days of my 3 hours to make spaghetti bolognese!
