What we’re about
Welcome to all you ladies who are 40+! It is your time to get out of the house and expand your mind with some great literature and food for thought! We are here:
*to share your thoughts and ideas over a book that you HAVE to talk about
*to start reading all those books you've been wanting to read
*to read a book that goes deeper than the latest fluff
*to get out of the house to have an adult conversation
*to start new friendships
We will meet once a month at our favorite coffee/wine bar. It is a great place to grab a drink or tasty snack as we mull over our book of the month. Our book choices will range from classic literature, current best sellers, and cult favorites. Some of my favorite reads have been from a genre I would not have tried!
So let's open the pages and start The Next Chapter!

See all- THE ADVENTURES OF HUCKLEBERRY FINN by Mark TwainMugshots Coffee Company, Bloomington, MN
Why read The Adventures of Huckleberry Hill?
-
Although The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is very much a “boys' novel”—humorous, suspenseful, and intended purely as entertainment—The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn also addresses weighty issues such as slavery, prejudice, hypocrisy, and morality. (Gale.com)
-
We will be reading JAMES by Percival Everett in February!!!
Readers meet Huckleberry Finn after he's been taken in by Widow Douglas and her sister, Miss Watson, who intend to teach him religion and proper manners. Huck soon sets off on an adventure to help the widow's slave, Jim, escape up the Mississippi to the free states. By allowing Huck to tell his own story, Mark Twain addresses America's painful contradiction of racism and segregation in a "free" and "equal" society.
