The Middlesex readings...

Our meeting at RedEye coffee was a success!  We met and discussed the book The Next Thing on my List.  The book definitely delivered on its promise to be warm, and an adventure.  Some of the members hadn't had time to finish it, so we did more discussing of plot issues rather than the discussion questions.  All of us agreed that the main character changed from the beginning of the book to the end, and that her job was unique.

After the book club, we went and saw the film "Shutter Island", which starred Leonardo DiCaprio and Ben Kingsley.  It was a psychological thriller about a mental institution about the criminally insane.  It a twist ending, so for all of you going to see it, it was good.

Our next book club meeting will be on March 6th, at the RedEye Coffee shop.  We will be discussing the book Middlesex by Jeffrey Eugenides.  This book discusses the life of a young Greek girl in America.  It should be a great read.

As always, we welcome new faces! Cheers!
