Hi Book Lovers
We had a great discussion on "The Book Thief' last Thursday. Another good turn up of contributors and quite a few new faces. All up we had 17 people reading the book, so if every one turns up at once we might have to share wine glasses!
Our next meeting will be on June 12th. We have decided to read Carpentaria by Alexis Wright . The book won the 2007 Miles Franklin award and as Alexis will be in Mildura for the Writers' Festival in July, we thought it would be appropriate to tackle it. It is another long book and could be quite challenging but hey it's good to be taken out of your comfort zone.
Some of you may choose to access the boook independently, however copies will be available shortly through the library. Please let me know if you require one to be reserved for you.
I look forward to seeing you at the Buronga Library (next to the Bakery) at 6pm on June 12th. Wine and nibbles will again be provided and you might like to consider a donation of about $3.
Happy reading,
Penny Edmanson
