Cinco de Mayo - Leave Me Alone, I'm Reading

Darla hosted a group of nine for a delicious Cinco de Mayo book group. She started us off with lovely soup, we had great salads from Leann and Agnes, Becky made a wonderful casserole, and we had two great desserts from Karen and Lisa.

I think about half of us had read the book Leave Me Alone I'm Reading by Maureen Corrigan. I think we all really enjoyed it, and we had a bit of a debate over Corrigan's feminism. Very interesting.

Per usual, we talked about many other books. Here are the ones I was able to scribble down:
  • What Happened to Anna K by Irina Reyn
  • Border Songs by Jim Lynch (coming out June 16)
  • Umbrella Man by Roald Dahl
  • Death Comes for the Archbishop by Willa Cather
Next MeetingWhen: June 23
Where: Becky's
What: Angle of Repose by Wallace Stegner <http://www.amazon.com/Angle-Repose-Penguin-Twentieth-Century-Classics/dp/0141185473/>
