Book Discussion Group: In Five Years

This month we are reading In Five Years by Rebeccea Serle.  

Dannie Kohan lives her life by the numbers. She is nothing like her lifelong best friend - the wild, whimsical, believes-in-fate Bella. Her meticulous planning seems to have paid off after she nails the most important job interview of her career and accepts her boyfriend’s marriage proposal in one fell swoop, falling asleep completely content.

Virtual Book Discussion Group: Hillbilly Elegy

This month we are reading Hillbilly Elegy by J.D. Vance.  The meeting will be taking place on Zoom.  Below are instructions on how to join the book club meeting.  

The Vance family story begins hopefully in postwar America. J. D.’s grandparents were “dirt poor and in love,” and moved north from Kentucky’s Appalachia region to Ohio in the hopes of escaping the dreadful poverty around them. With piercing honesty, Vance shows how he himself still carries around the demons of his chaotic family history.
