Merry Book Holidays!


We had a great meeting at RedEye Coffee House about The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo. We discussed the values of statistics at the beginning of each section, the odd abundance of Nazi's in this family, the original title of the book, and of course, why all the men in this book don't have normal relationships. The meetings on Saturdays are a great hit, because some of the members go to movies afterward, and enjoy the cheap ticket prices of movies in the afternoon.

Sadly, this will be our last meeting of the year, because with finals and the holidays coming up, it is simply too hard to come up with a Saturday that is not swamped with engagements. Therefore, to compensate, we have chosen not one, but THREE books to read for our next meeting on January 9, 2010 at 11:00 AM. The first book is The Story of Edgar Sawtelle by David Wroblewski. The next book is Love in the Time of Cholera by Gabriel Garcia Marquez, and the last book is The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid by Bill Bryson. The variety of these three books should keep everyone entertained this holiday time, as well as give us tons of things to talk about when we meet again. So enjoy the rest of the year, happy holidays, and I hope to see everyone back in 2010!

Cheers!
