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 - 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.
