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 4^th everyone!

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 16^th.

 

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 4^th of July!

RE: SALSA

I remember reading the After Ann series – they were all good!  I recently finished Red Hook Road – also very good!! I was not sure I’d like it but, the further into it I got, the more interested in the characters I became. I think some of you, if not all, had read it.

 

I’m currently reading Summers’Child by Diane Chamberlain. Very good so far. Here’s a summary…

 

Twenty years after 11-year-old Daria Cato found a baby abandoned on a beach in Kill Devil Hills, N.C., she is still very much a part of the child's life. Daria's parent's had adopted the infant, but now they are dead and she has accepted responsibility for Shelly--who has grown into a beautiful, slightly handicapped young woman. Without consulting Daria, Shelly contacts Rory Taylor, host of TV's True Life Stories, to ask his help in finding her birth mother. Rory has a personal interest in Shelly's story since he'd been one of the many teenagers hanging out on the beach the summer the baby was found. Daria, meanwhile, has been keeping to herself the crush she's had on Rory for years--along with Shelly's true story. The more questions Rory asks, the more unsettled the tiny community becomes, as closely guarded secrets and the sins of that long-ago summer begin to surface. Piece by piece, the mystery of summer's child is being exposed, a mystery that no one involved—not Shelly, Daria, not even Rory—is prepared to face.

 

Have a great 4^th!

RE: SALSA

I know I never made the meeting but I have recently finished “The Rescue” by Nora Roberts which was good. I am right now in the middle of “Life’s A Beach” by Claire Cooke and I am enjoying the no brainer summer reading!  Thank goodness for nice nights, a patio and a Nook!

 

Have a great Summer everyone!
