Bel Canto Discussion

Well, thanks to an AP Bio test and a music appearance or rehearsal or something along those lines, we had a whopping 3 member turnout for last night's (Dec.7)book discussion. Oh well, everyone had a chance to get in on the discussion. Thanks to Erica for the 7-layer bars and thanks to everyone for putting up with the crazy howling and door bumping from Maynard (the bulldog).

We had a pretty good discussion of character and theme which focused on music, opportunity, social conventions/expectations ... The epilogue was discussed with a slight degree of incredulity -- possibly the effects of PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder)A suggestion was given that we may wish to schedule an additional discussion so that more members could share their thoughts. What do you think?

Also, My Sister's Keeper was selected as one of our next books to read for a Feb. 4 meeting at Kim's house. The idea is that we may want two titles to read over the break. We will meet before school this Wed., Dec. 14 at 7:15 to discuss this.

Stop in and let me know if you have any ideas.
