Brantford news, Interest Groups, review

Terry Fallis, Bill Bryson, old photos and more

We had a lively discussion about many great books at our meeting. One of our legacy members shared a photo from decades ago and we welcomed a new participant. Another of our legacy members shared a book by Susanna Kearsley, who had been a student of hers in high school.

One of our members let us know that Brant County Libraries was hosting two high profile author readings this year, Terry Fallis, and Joy Fielding. Should be great! They both have new books coming out soon.

One of our members is also an author and she showed us a book she was gifted by a visiting scholar. He had found the archival photo in the Antwerp museum dedicated to the Red Star Line  that was used on the cover of a book written by our member for the Dear Canada series by Scholastic. Many of our ancestors traveled to Canada on the Red Star Line. So neat!

The bookaholics are at it again!

The Monday afternoon book club met again and as usual, we read a TON of good books. Norah presented Patriot by Alexei Navalny (fairly interesting and detailed but overlong and wordy) and posed for this pic.

Other books read and highly recommended:

Closed Doors by Lisa O’Donnell, Tartufo by Kira Jane Buxton, Angels and Demons by Dan Brown, This Will Be Difficult to Explain and Other Stories by Johanna Skibsrud, The Best Laid Plans by Terry Fallis, She Didn’t See It coming by Robyn Harding, Anatomy of a Con Artist: The 14 Red Flags to Spot Scammers, Grifters, and Thieves by Johnathan Walton and Sold on a Monday by Kristina McMorris.
