After yet another midlife calendar crisis, we rallied and met two weeks post our normal schedule. It was a nice gathering at Cork and Craft although we missed Wanda's presence. She was happily occupied. Now, between Hazel Poe and Chase Paul ..... two new grandchildren in our fold!! With literary sounding names too.
"The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry" was just what our summer reading lists ordered as we all agreed it was an enjoyable fling with our virtual pages.
Up next - (spoiler alert):
Erik Larsen's "Dead Wake" is our September read. TG put the following program on our radar. I am chasing the channels and hope to see it ASAP. I believe it will be shown next on August 31st.

We discussed moving our September date given the first Wednesday would be two short weeks after our delayed August meeting. I believe we agreed on 9/9 but I could be wrong.... anybody? Location is TF's choice.
Books considered for our next selection included:
"The Short and Tragic Life of Robert Peace" by Jeff Hobbs *chosen
"Lovers at the Chameleon Club, Paris 1932" by Francine Prose
"1 Dead in Attic after Katrina" by Chris Rose
"The Miniaturist" by Jessie Burton
Keep on reading!
