, scones, Pork and some kind of delicious German dish whose name I can't remember. This book got a big thumbs up from the entire group. It was just what we needed after the very heavy and thought provoking book from last month. 
We discussed the book in detail including our favorite characters, who should play them in a movie, who was the true heroine in the book and why the writing style worked so well. Once again this story took us to a place in the world that we knew little about. Robyn brought her delightful mother, Flo, along for the meeting and she talked about how her book group read this book and reminisced about what their life was like during and after the war. Interesting that for us it was all about the characters and for them it was all about memories.For this reader, it made me yearn for the days of letter writing.
Next month we will shake things up a bit.
The meeting is the first Friday in November due to Halloween. We are meeting at Suzi Byrd's house and discussing Pride & Prejudice & Zombies. I'm a little worried that Jane Austen will haunt us but at least the food will be interesting. Will folks go with the delicate British party food or the guts and brains? You'll have to show up to find out.Happy reading.
