We hope to make this a casual, easy group without any pressure to speak if you would prefer not. But we hope you will want to share your thoughts on the books you like.

Devra Long will moderate the 1st term.

The club may provide coffee and tea for us.

We will have a social instead of a meeting in December and will not meet

 in June, July and August.

1. How did you rate this book?  Why?

2. What impressions did you get?

3. How did it affect you?

4. What was different about this book from others you've read?

5. Have you or anyone you know experienced anything like what took place
