SUMMARY:Book Group - Mad Honey by Jodi Picoult and Jennifer Finney Boylan
DESCRIPTION:On January 9th the Book Group will discuss Mad Honey by Jodi Picoult and Jennifer Finney Boylan. \nAccording to GoodReads: \nA soul-stirring novel about what we choose to keep from our past\, and what we choose to leave behind. \nOlivia McAfee knows what it feels like to start over. Her picture-perfect life—living in Boston\, married to a brilliant cardiothoracic surgeon\, raising a beautiful son\, Asher—was upended when her husband revealed a darker side. She never imagined she would end up back in her sleepy New Hampshire hometown\, living in the house she grew up in\, and taking over her father’s beekeeping business. \nLily Campanello is familiar with do-overs\, too. When she and her mom relocate to Adams\, New Hampshire\, for her final year of high school\, they both hope it will be a fresh start. \nAnd for just a short while\, these new beginnings are exactly what Olivia and Lily need. Their paths cross when Asher falls for the new girl in school\, and Lily can’t help but fall for him\, too. With Ash\, she feels happy for the first time. Yet at times\, she wonders if she can she trust him completely . . . \nThen one day\, Olivia receives a phone call: Lily is dead\, and Asher is being questioned by the police. Olivia is adamant that her son is innocent. But she would be lying if she didn’t acknowledge the flashes of his father’s temper in him\, and as the case against him unfolds\, she realizes he’s hidden more than he’s shared with her. \nMad Honey is a riveting novel of suspense\, an unforgettable love story\, and a moving and powerful exploration of the secrets we keep and the risks we take in order to become ourselves.

SUMMARY:Book Group - Lady Tan’s Circle of Women by Lisa See
DESCRIPTION:The December 14th Book Group will be discussing Lady Tan’s Circle of Women by Lisa See \nAccording to GoodReads: \nThe latest historical novel from New York Times bestselling author Lisa See\, inspired by the true story of a woman physician from 15th-century China—perfect for fans of See’s classic Snowflower and the Secret Fan and The Island of Sea Women. \nAccording to Confucius\, “an educated woman is a worthless woman\,” but Tan Yunxian—born into an elite family\, yet haunted by death\, separations\, and loneliness—is being raised by her grandparents to be of use. Her grandmother is one of only a handful of female doctors in China\, and she teaches Yunxian the pillars of Chinese medicine\, the Four Examinations—looking\, listening\, touching\, and asking—something a man can never do with a female patient. \nFrom a young age\, Yunxian learns about women’s illnesses\, many of which relate to childbearing\, alongside a young midwife-in-training\, Meiling. The two girls find fast friendship and a mutual purpose—despite the prohibition that a doctor should never touch blood while a midwife comes in frequent contact with it—and they vow to be forever friends\, sharing in each other’s joys and struggles. No mud\, no lotus\, they tell themselves: from adversity beauty can bloom. \nBut when Yunxian is sent into an arranged marriage\, her mother-in-law forbids her from seeing Meiling and from helping the women and girls in the household. Yunxian is to act like a proper wife—embroider bound-foot slippers\, pluck instruments\, recite poetry\, give birth to sons\, and stay forever within the walls of the family compound\, the Garden of Fragrant Delights. \nHow might a woman like Yunxian break free of these traditions\, go on to treat women and girls from every level of society\, and lead a life of such importance that many of her remedies are still used five centuries later? How might the power of friendship support or complicate these efforts? Lady Tan’s Circle of Women is a captivating story of women helping other women. It is also a triumphant reimagining of the life of a woman who was remarkable in the Ming dynasty and would be considered remarkable today.

SUMMARY:Book Group - West with Giraffes by Lynda Rutledge
DESCRIPTION:This month’s Book Group will look at West with Giraffes by Lynda Rutledge on November 14. \n  \nAccording to GoodReads: \nAn emotional\, rousing novel inspired by the incredible true story of two giraffes who made headlines and won the hearts of Depression-era America. \n“Few true friends have I known and two were giraffes…” \nWoodrow Wilson Nickel\, age 105\, feels his life ebbing away. But when he learns giraffes are going extinct\, he finds himself recalling the unforgettable experience he cannot take to his grave. \nIt’s 1938. The Great Depression lingers. Hitler is threatening Europe\, and world-weary Americans long for wonder. They find it in two giraffes who miraculously survive a hurricane while crossing the Atlantic. What follows is a twelve-day road trip in a custom truck to deliver Southern California’s first giraffes to the San Diego Zoo. Behind the wheel is the young Dust Bowl rowdy Woodrow. Inspired by true events\, the tale weaves real-life figures with fictional ones\, including the world’s first female zoo director\, a crusty old man with a past\, a young female photographer with a secret\, and assorted reprobates as spotty as the giraffes. \nPart adventure\, part historical saga\, and part coming-of-age love story\, West with Giraffes explores what it means to be changed by the grace of animals\, the kindness of strangers\, the passing of time\, and a story told before it’s too late.

SUMMARY:Book Group - Postcard From Italy by Angela Petch.
DESCRIPTION:Oct 10 at 4:00 Postcard From Italy by Angela Petch. \n  \nFrom Goodreads: \nItaly\, 1945. ‘Where am I?’ The young man wakes\, bewildered. He sees olive trees against a bright blue sky. A soft voice soothes him. ‘We saw you fall from your plane. The parachute saved you.’ He remembers nothing of his life\, or the war that has torn the world apart… but where does he belong? \nEngland\, present day. Antiques-shop owner Susannah feels adrift. Her beloved father has died\, and her grandmother Elsie’s memories are disappearing. But everything changes when she stumbles across a yellowed postcard bearing a picture of a beautiful Italian stone farmhouse\, tucked away in Elsie’s dressing table. A message dated from the Second World War speaks of a secret love. Could her grandmother\, who never talked about the past\, have fallen for someone in Italy all those years ago? \nWith Elsie confused and distressed by her questions\, heartbroken Susannah tracks down the house on the postcard. Arriving at what is now a crumbling hotel by the sparkling Italian sea\, she feels strangely at home. And after an unexpected encounter with handsome wine waiter Giacomo\, she can’t tell if it’s his dark eyes or his offer to help solve her mystery that makes her heart race. \nTogether they find a dusty chest tucked in a forgotten corner of the building. The white silk of a World War II parachute spills out. And the British pilot’s identity tag nestled in the folds bears a familiar name… \nAs a story of lost memories\, terrible betrayal and impossible choices unfolds\, Susannah comes closer to a devastating wartime secret at the heart of her own family. Did she ever really know her grandmother? And when she finally learns the truth\, will it help heal her pain – or tear her apart for good? \nAn absolutely stunning page-turner that will sweep you away to the olive groves and majestic views of the Italian coast. Perfect for fans of Kathryn Hughes\, Fiona Valpy and Victoria Hislop.

SUMMARY:Book Group - In the Unlikely Event by Judy Blume
DESCRIPTION:The October 10 book group will be the book  In the Unlikely Event by Judy Blume.   Amy will be hosting a gathering at her house for the event this month.   She invites you all from 3:30 – 6:00\, but the book discussion is still scheduled from 4-5. \n  \nAccording to Good Reads: \nIn her highly anticipated new novel\, Judy Blume\, the New York Times # 1 best-selling author of Summer Sisters and of young adult classics such as Are You There God? It’s Me\, Margaret\, creates a richly textured and moving story of three generations of families\, friends and strangers\, whose lives are profoundly changed by unexpected events. \nIn 1987\, Miri Ammerman returns to her hometown of Elizabeth\, New Jersey\, to attend a commemoration of the worst year of her life. \nThirty-five years earlier\, when Miri was fifteen\, and in love for the first time\, a succession of airplanes fell from the sky\, leaving a community reeling. Against this backdrop of actual events that Blume experienced in the early 1950s\, when airline travel was new and exciting and everyone dreamed of going somewhere\, Judy Blume imagines and weaves together a haunting story of three generations of families\, friends\, and strangers\, whose lives are profoundly changed by these disasters. She paints a vivid portrait of a particular time and place — Nat King Cole singing “Unforgettable\,” Elizabeth Taylor haircuts\, young (and not-so-young) love\, explosive friendships\, A-bomb hysteria\, rumors of Communist threat. And a young journalist who makes his name reporting tragedy. Through it all\, one generation reminds another that life goes on.

SUMMARY:Book Group - David Copperfield by Charles Dickens and/or Demon Copperhead by Barbara Kingsolver.
DESCRIPTION:Sept 12 at 4:00  David Copperfield by Charles Dickens and/or Demon Copperhead by Barbara Kingsolver. \n  \nDavid Copperfield from Goodreads: \nDavid Copperfield is the story of a young man’s adventures on his journey from an unhappy and impoverished childhood to the discovery of his vocation as a successful novelist. Among the gloriously vivid cast of characters he encounters are his tyrannical stepfather\, Mr Murdstone; his brilliant\, but ultimately unworthy school-friend James Steerforth; his formidable aunt\, Betsey Trotwood; the eternally humble\, yet treacherous Uriah Heep; frivolous\, enchanting Dora Spenlow; and the magnificently impecunious Wilkins Micawber\, one of literature’s great comic creations. In David Copperfield – the novel he described as his ‘favourite child’ – Dickens drew revealingly on his own experiences to create one of the most exuberant and enduringly popular works\, filled with tragedy and comedy in equal measure. This edition uses the text of the first volume publication of 1850\, and includes updated suggestions for further reading\, original illustrations by ‘Phiz’\, a revised chronology and expanded notes. In his new introduction\, Jeremy Tambling discusses the novel’s autobiographical elements\, and its central themes of memory and identity. \n  \nDemon Copperfield from Goodreads: \nSet in the mountains of southern Appalachia\, this is the story of a boy born to a teenaged single mother in a single-wide trailer\, with no assets beyond his dead father’s good looks and copper-colored hair\, a caustic wit\, and a fierce talent for survival. In a plot that never pauses for breath\, relayed in his own unsparing voice\, he braves the modern perils of foster care\, child labor\, derelict schools\, athletic success\, addiction\, disastrous loves\, and crushing losses. Through all of it\, he reckons with his own invisibility in a popular culture where even the superheroes have abandoned rural people in favor of cities. \nMany generations ago\, Charles Dickens wrote David Copperfield from his experience as a survivor of institutional poverty and its damages to children in his society. Those problems have yet to be solved in ours. Dickens is not a prerequisite for readers of this novel\, but he provided its inspiration. In transposing a Victorian epic novel to the contemporary American South\, Barbara Kingsolver enlists Dickens’ anger and compassion\, and above all\, his faith in the transformative powers of a good story. Demon Copperhead speaks for a new generation of lost boys\, and all those born into beautiful\, cursed places they can’t imagine leaving behind.

SUMMARY:Book Group - Lessons in Chemistry by Barbara Garmus
DESCRIPTION:July 11 at 4:00 Lessons in Chemistry by Barbara Garmus \nFrom Goodreads: \nChemist Elizabeth Zott is not your average woman. In fact\, Elizabeth Zott would be the first to point out that there is no such thing as an average woman. But it’s the early 1960s and her all-male team at Hastings Research Institute takes a very unscientific view of equality. Except for one: Calvin Evans; the lonely\, brilliant\, Nobel–prize nominated grudge-holder who falls in love with—of all things—her mind. True chemistry results. \nBut like science\, life is unpredictable. Which is why a few years later Elizabeth Zott finds herself not only a single mother\, but the reluctant star of America’s most beloved cooking show Supper at Six. Elizabeth’s unusual approach to cooking (“combine one tablespoon acetic acid with a pinch of sodium chloride”) proves revolutionary. But as her following grows\, not everyone is happy. Because as it turns out\, Elizabeth Zott isn’t just teaching women to cook. She’s daring them to change the status quo. \nLaugh-out-loud funny\, shrewdly observant\, and studded with a dazzling cast of supporting characters\, Lessons in Chemistry is as original and vibrant as its protagonist.

SUMMARY:Book Group - Gilded Mountain by Kate Manning
DESCRIPTION:June 13\, at 4:00: Gilded Mountain by Kate Manning\n“This “stellar read” ( Los Angeles Times ) is an exhilarating tale of an unforgettable young woman who bravely exposes the corruption that enriched her father’s employers in early 1900s Colorado. \nIn a voice infused with sly humor\, Sylvie Pelletier recounts leaving her family’s snowbound mountain cabin to work in a manor house for the Padgetts\, owners of the marble-mining company that employs her father and dominates the town. Sharp-eyed Sylvie is awed by the luxury around her; fascinated by her employer\, the charming “Countess” Inge\, and confused by the erratic affections of Jasper\, the bookish heir to the family fortune. Her fairy-tale ideas take a dark turn when she realizes the Padgetts’ lofty philosophical talk is at odds with the unfair labor practices that have enriched them. Their servants\, the Gradys\, formerly enslaved people\, have long known this to be true and are making plans to form a utopian community on the Colorado prairie. \nOutside the manor walls\, the town of Moonstone is roiling with discontent. A handsome union organizer\, along with labor leader Mary Harris “Mother” Jones\, is stirring up the quarry workers. The editor of the local newspaper—a bold woman who takes Sylvie on as an apprentice—is publishing unflattering accounts of the Padgett Company. Sylvie navigates vastly different worlds and struggles to find her way amid conflicting loyalties. When the harsh winter brings tragedy\, Sylvie decides to act. \nDrawn from true stories of Colorado history\, Gilded Mountain is a tale of a bygone American West seized by robber barons and settled by immigrants\, and is a story imbued with longing—for self-expression and equality\, freedom and adventure.” Goodreads\nhttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/60321424-gilded-mountain?ref=nav_sb_ss_1_1

SUMMARY:Book Group - Perestroika in Paris by Jane Smiley
DESCRIPTION:May 9\, at 4:00: Perestroika in Paris by Jane Smiley. “A wonderful feel-good story\, especially for anyone whose world\, like mine\, revolves not around people but around animals. “Patty \n“From the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of A Thousand Acres and the New York Times best-selling Last Hundred Years Trilogy\, a captivating\, brilliantly imaginative story of three extraordinary animals–and a young boy–whose lives intersect in Paris. \nParas\, short for “Perestroika\,” is a spirited racehorse at a racetrack west of Paris. One afternoon at dusk\, she finds the door of her stall open and–she’s a curious filly–wanders all the way to the City of Light. She’s dazzled and often mystified by the sights\, sounds\, and smells around her\, but she isn’t afraid. Soon she meets an elegant dog\, a German shorthaired pointer named Frida\, who knows how to get by without attracting the attention of suspicious Parisians. Paras and Frida coexist for a time in the city’s lush green spaces\, nourished by Frida’s strategic trips to the vegetable market. They keep company with two irrepressible ducks and an opinionated raven. But then Paras meets a human boy\, Etienne\, and discovers a new\, otherworldly part of Paris: the ivy-walled house where the boy and his nearly-one-hundred-year-old great-grandmother live in seclusion. As the cold weather and Christmas near\, the unlikeliest of friendships bloom. But how long can a runaway horse stay undiscovered in Paris? How long can a boy keep her hidden and all to himself? Jane Smiley’s beguiling new novel is itself an adventure that celebrates curiosity\, ingenuity\, and the desire of all creatures for true love and freedom.” Goodreads\nhttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/52578294-perestroika-in-paris?from_search=true&from_srp=true&qid=ZSZJsNZdtW&rank=1
