We had a fantastic meeting at Tazza di Caffe tonight (be sure to check out their Macadamia White Chocolate Latte . . . mmmmm)! I think there was concensus on our opinion of Anne Rice's ability as an author. While we probably would have not picked up Christ the Lord: Out of Egypt because we aren't fans of her vampire novels, we are so glad we read this book! Her historical research really puts us in the place and time of Christ. The narrative voice is fantastic!
Our next book is Skipping Christmas by John Grisham. We will be meeting December 17th. This is a delightful, quick read about what happens when a couple decides to skip the commercialism of Christmas . . . and how the world reacts. I'll update with more information later, but we're thinking of meeting to watch the movie Christmas With the Kranks, based on the book. Check back later!
Hope to see you then!
