Sisterland at Julie's

It was a small group at Julie's to discuss Sisterland. We enjoyed a healthy Italian meal (well, healthy until the gelato came out later). Sisterland stimulated some interesting discussion - abortion, moving past infidelity, twin relationships, ESP....  We agreed she accurately captures the stress of mothering two young children, and that Jeremy pretty much sounds like an ideal husband.  I enjoyed the book but I think I still prefer American Wife and Prep over Sisterland.

Julie thoughtfully provided four books for us to choose from, and we unanimously selected The Dry Grass of August by Anna Jean Mayhew. Amazon blurb on the Dry Grass of August

Next book club: Monday, October 21st, 7:00pm at Tamara's house - a house with quite a backstory! She will send out directions to her house in an email when the date gets closer.
