On a recent trip to visit one of our grown girls,
I interrupted a lady reading in a pool chair.
She looked to be a serious reader. I am always
looking for book suggestions. I can’t really say what made
her look serious, except for the heat. It was almost too hot
to hold a book on one’s lap. You know the kind, with the
plastic book jacket. We had a lovely conversation. She’s part
of a neighborhood book club that’s been going since 1995.
Before I left on the plane, she managed to get me her intricate book
club book list. Very organized, impressive, typed document!
Yikes, is all I have to say to that. I have searched old notebooks,
tore book lists off my wall, asked book club members for titles
they remember, and managed to get my hands on an old zip file.
I’m working on typing up a document. It’s been interesting to look
over the many books I have read. As much as it has been a messy
start, I am looking forward to the list. I have already read three books
off the pool ladies list.
