Friday Favorites: A Book Sharing Group - 1st meeting

We had the first meeting of our new library book group last Friday, February 3rd.
The participants enjoyed a great conversation about books, some tea, coffee and snacks, and we all left with several new books on our "to read" list. We want to thank all who attended, and extend a warm invitation to all for next month's meeting, set for March 2nd at 11am.

The group will meet on the first Friday of the month to share our "Friday finds"
, or those books we feel compelled to share. Then we'll compile a list of books we talked about and make the list available at the library and here on this blog.

These are the books that were suggested at our first gathering:
