Dinner Book Club

The next meeting for the Dinner Book Club is March 17th at 7p.m. Cinda Bryer is our host for the evening. If you would like to attend and need directions to her house, just call the book store and ask for Debbie.
The book this month is 'The Persian Pickle Club' by Sandra Dallas
It is the 1930s, and hard times have hit Harveyville, Kansas, where the crops are burning up and there’s not a job to be found. For Queenie Bean, a young farm wife, a highlight of each week is the gathering of the Persian Pickle Club, a group of local ladies dedicated to improving their minds, exchanging gossip, and putting their quilting skills to good use. When a new member of the club stirs up a dark secret, the women must band together to support and protect one another. In her magical, memorable novel, Sandra Dallas explores the ties that unite women through good times and bad.
I found this book delightful, with a small hint of intrigue that kept my interest high. I was amused at the characters described. I always enjoy books that give such a unique look at the relationships between women. They cause me to reflect on my own relationships and what they mean to me. I know you will love this book. I hope you will join us.
