BOOK CLUB
On-Going.........Third Thursday of
each month..........Noon-1:00 pm..........No Fee
If you want to join a book club where
participants tell you what they REALLY think about the book,
this is the group for you. We mince no words in discussing our likes
and dislikes of a book. We are a very informal group. We don't
have a leader, but take turns going around the room and hearing each
persons views about the book. This often leads us in to lively
discussions of past events in the area or in our lives. Before
leaving, we vote on a book for the following month.

FEBRUARY'S
BOOK CLUB SELECTION
Meeting Thursday, FEBRUARY 16, 2012 from Noon to 1:00 pm
Major Pettigrew's Last Stand by
Helen Simonson
When Major Pettigrew, a retired
British army major in a small English village, embarks
on an unexpected friendship with the widowed Mrs. Ali,
who runs the local shop, trouble erupts to disturb the
bucolic serenity of the village and of the Major’s
carefully regimented life.
As the Major and Mrs.
Ali discover just how much they have in common,
including an educated background and a shared love of
books, they must struggle to understand what it means to
belong and how far the obligations of family and
tradition can be set aside for personal freedom.
Meanwhile, the village itself, lost in its petty
prejudices and traditions, may not see its own
destruction coming. (Fiction)

MARCH'S
BOOK CLUB SELECTION
Meeting Thursday, MARCH 15, 2012 from Noon to 1:00 pm
Riders of the Purple Sage by
Zane Grey
Initially published in 1912
and the first of Zane Grey's many bestsellers, this
stirring tale of adventure in the high country
established the prototype for western novels of the
twentieth century. The plot's focus is a proud young
heroine who's determined to defend her Utah ranch.
She stands alone against the villains who rustle and
stampede her cattle—until a stranger rides into the
territory. Notorious as the scourge of Mormon
transgressors, the stranger stays on to assist in
the inevitable showdown, and romance blooms amid the
canyons and cottonwoods. A classic of American
frontier fiction, Riders of the Purple Sage teems
with color, authenticity, and thrills.
