Next Daytime Discussion

The next discussion is on Wednesday, November 11 at 1:30 p.m. We will be discussing Moloka'i by Alan Brennert. Summary: Seven- year old Rachel is forcibly removed from her family's 1890s Honolulu home when she contracts leprosy and is placed in a settlement. There she loses a series of new friends before new medical discoveries enable her to reenter the world.

For December the group decided to read something from Edith Wharton. Some titles are The Age of Innocence, House of Mirth, and Ethan Frome. We will choose the exact title at the next meeting. Come prepared with book ideas for 2010.

The library is working with local authors and hoping to have them come to speak in 2010. The group may choose to read one of their books in the new year. One is Shobhan Bantwal. She has 3 books; The Dowry Bride, The Forbidden Daughter and the Sari Shop Widow.
Another possible author is Rachel Levy Lesser and her book Shopping for Love.
