Yoko Ogawa , The Housekeeper and the Professor.

We usually meet the last Saturday of every other month, but due to a schedule conflict, I'll be hosting one week later-- the first week of June.
Discuss the novel The Housekeeper and the Professor by Yoko Ogawa with our Saturday night drop-in book club.We meet every other month, usually the last Saturday at 8:00pm. Our book choices are usually a little edgier than the traditional book club fare, and our discussions are focused yet fun. After about an hour talking about the book, most of us head to a bar or coffee shop to socialize. This helps us spend our book club time talking openly and in-depth about the book, then gives us a great opportunity to bond with fellow readers afterwards. Everyone is welcome to take part in the discussion, and all are encouraged to join us for social time after, too. Remember, they're Saturday nights starting at 8:00. (booksense)… (mais)
