Enoch Pratt's Central Library book club
This book club was started about 15 years ago by Fay Houston and Richard Oloizia, employees at the library on Cathedral Street. About a dozen men and women are in the discussion group, which meets on the last Saturday of the month (this week's meeting starts at 10:15 a.m.) in the Poe Room. Houston, who has retired from the library, leads the discussions. Refreshments included!
Now reading: The Places In Between by Rory Stewart. ("A flat-out masterpiece...In very nearly every sense, too good to be true." -- The New York Times Book Review)
The Wife by Meg Wolitzer ("delivered with signature wit, warmth, and a wise woman's eye view" -- Elle)
The Known World by Edward P. Jones ("Fascinating...poignant....[A] complex and fine novel." -- The Sun)
Not so much: the Christmas Train by David Baldacci
