RE: SALSA

Sorry, Shirley.  I handed my messy notes to the work study…it was quite the daunting task.  Thank you for sharing yours.  ;0)

Oops, you  missed my reads.

I read  The Confession by John Grisham and it was wonderful.  Typical Grisham book that makes you feel like you are actually living the story.

Also,  I read Month of Summer by Lisa Wingate.  This was a recommendation by author Roxann Henke who wrote After Ann and others. 

It was a good read that was about fractured relationships, forgiveness and self examination.  I liked it a lot.

Have a great 4th everyone!

Good morning, ladies! 

 

SALSA was a smash hit!  Great to hear all the selected reads and why they were selected. Our student worker, Leslie composed them below. 

 

Please let me know if we have the wrong title/author or if we forgot one...same is true for the websites.

 

July is off, so our next meeting is August at Niblicks, 5 to 7 pm, the third Tuesday, August 16th.

 

September will go back to Wednesday evenings at Prantes, 5 to 7 pm, so we would meet September 21, 2011.  Completing our little detour for the summer.  ;0)

 

Enjoy your summer & an early Happy 4th of July!

 

Tina
