    I'm new to the area and haven't gotten a hang of the public transportation system. I missed the Bart transfer station AND couldn't find the right bus. I loved the "Secret Life of Bees," it was a great pick! I hope to see you all next time!

    So sorry to have not been able to make the meeting this evening after I'd rsvp-ed. I had every intention of going and was not able to make it at the last minute. Hope to make the next one. What's the new book? :-( Hillary

    I love to read but I've never been part of a book club before. This will be my first time!

    Are all your meetings on the third Monday? I just started the Multi-City Advertising and Marketing Group and it meets the third Monday. So we have a conflict. I will have to bow out....I'm so sad because I was really looking forward to the book club. Please let me know your schedule. Thank you!

    This will be my first book club meeting. I am looking forward to some good literary discussions.

Who attended?

    •  It was fun to meet a bunch of other readers and find out what they thought about this book. Thanks for organizing everything Carissa. 
    •  It was a lot of fun to discuss the book and especially to lead the discussion. 
    •  I felt very welcomed, and I was happy to see that everyone contributed meaningfully. The book was good, but the conversation was great. 
    •  Another stimulating discussion. Clarissa is doing a great job! 
    •  This is a really lovely group of people. We had a terrific discussion with many points of view.
