Dear Bookclub,
Indulging my request to host, I was thrilled to have our group for lunch to discuss Matt Haig's "Midnight Library". Not a regret in sight as blunders and setbacks accompanied the tableau of my purple cross-stitched and flower-strewn adorned dining table. That's just me and the optimistic execution of a menu I usually dreamily concoct. Kumquats put back in the freezer and fresh squash cubed, and we eventually had a nice meal. Thankfully, we did not need to replay or re-live or tweak the afternoon. OR do we?
Generally enjoying "Midnight Library", we collectively agreed that the concept is not new and has had better executions (lots of puns there for sliders). Nora was not fun to relate to and the resolution murky. Personally, after having read it twice, I softened to the author and his intent after learning more about his history and motivation. Please delve into this Guardian article for real insight:

My suggestions for an upcoming read:
“The Mathematician’s Shiva”
Stuart Rojstaczer
“Finding the Mother Tree” Suzanne Simard
“The Doctors Blackwell”
Janice P NImura *chosen
Up next:
Happy reading,
