Seven of us gathered at Leann's for our discussion of The Revenge of the Radioactive Lady. Leann served a delicious risotto that was rounded out by bread, salad, wonderful appetizers, and 2 desserts! Karen made a fabulous lemon torte, and our hostess provided sinful cupcakes. I think we were all stuffed and happy. As usual, please forgive any lapses regarding food on my part. This time I'll blame it on my blood sugar.
The book got mixed reviews. I believe everyone in attendance finished it. I liked Mary Beth's assessment: it was like a bad soap opera; the plot was ridiculous but you wanted to see what happened. Heather read the whole thing while trapped on a plane and really enjoyed the author's use of language and turns of phrase. We wanted to know: what happened to the neighborhood after the son contaminated it with radioactivity??
