November meeting--Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy

Amie Dunford's house
Discussion led by Amie. You may choose to read an abridged or unabridged version, but you'll need to get cracking ASAP either way. The unabridged is about 800-900 pages and many abridged ones are still 400+! (This is why we're doing a simpler poetry month in October.)


No December meeting


January meeting--A Midwife's Tale by Laurel Thatcher Ulrich

No discussant or location yet. Volunteers? Suggestions?


February meeting--Madame Bovary by Gustave Flaubert

Location TBA (any volunteers?)
Discussion led by Amy Harris.


March meeting--Villette by Charlotte Bronte

Thu, Mar. 5th at 7pm
Margaret Morrison's house
Discussion led by Margaret. This book is Bronte's most autobiographical (moreso that Jane Eyre!). Should be good.
