Readers of the Roundtable book club
This book club at the Parkville library has been around for at least five years, through deaths, bouts with cancer and other trials. An international flavor (including members from Ireland and Guyana) and diversity of backgrounds "is what makes the club so rich," says Rosemary McFarland. 'We have radically different points of view."
Now reading: Pleasurable Kingdom by Jonathan Balcombe
Liked a lot: The Botany of Desire by Michael Pollan, Balzac and the Little Chinese Seamstress by Dai Sijie and Ina Rilke, and Flowers for Algernon by Daniel Keyes
Not so much: Kitchen Confidential by Anthony Bourdain, The Dive from Clausen's Pier by Ann Packer








Comments
I wasn't sure who to ask--would anyone from your book club be interested in visiting the Hunt Valley Greetings and Readings Book Bash in Nov? Proceeds of sales go to Habitat for Humanity. Also, you're supporting local authors who write books.
Thank you. Margie Anne 410-560-1040
