We enjoyed a lovely end of the summer evening at Karin’s. Everything was Oh So Yummy!! Love the hint of lemon in the risotto. We missed Ellen, Susan and Allison and look forward to their return next meeting.
What Alice Forgot is really an introspective read. This book started out with a humorist twist as we find the main character on the gym floor not remembering the last ten years of her life. Little does Alice know that she has three children, her marriage to Nick is over and her best friend, Gina is dead. Over time Alice’s life unfolds showing her how she has changed (maybe not for the better) over the years and how her transformation has consequences. Although we delved into the characters and story line this book really got us thinking and talking about our own lives. What if we got a redo in life like Alice did? Amy shared how her life took on a similar parallel to Alice’s having that Gina in her life. For many of us it got us thinking of our relationships with friends, husbands, sisters, mothers….
Up Next is Amy’s pick, The Book Thief by Markus Zusak.
See you all soon.
