Our little book group

The wonderful and intelligent Melissa B. wanted to start a book group with her friends. Sadly Melissa had to move on but we have continued her dream of a book group. The group seems to lose and add members all the time because we live in a place where students are in and out and families move around. But we are all joined together as friends, women, and lovers of books. If you are interested in joining please contact one of us, we would love to have you out!
