The Shadow in the Wind host by Denise

Fun nite at a new location for book club discussion. Thanks Denise. Thanks to all who braved the downtown area to join Denise for the discussion of her book The Shadow of the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafon.

And yes that's Susan Schultz with us. Long time no see her and Lisa Rhodes. So good to have them join us.

Denise found the book by googling book club books and liked the story line then chose the restaurant because it was Spanish based. It was new and a learning experience for all of us.  Loved it that Denise hadn't even finished her own book.
Jan said that when Daniel met Clara it felt very sensual. I can't remember the exact how it happened but Jan was at the Y and found a fellow reader who loved the book also.
Diana said that Spanish writers tend to be more sensual when they write. Then Barbara loved that it was a book about a book.  Everyone loved the book and I think everyone enjoyed the food and atmosphere.
This book was perfect for our group since we all have a passion for reading of all kinds, a little love, a little mystery, courage, sensual, hateful, suspenseful you name it and we're there there. Did it suck you into the story, were you part of the story?

If you haven't finished I hope you do.

Deborah didn't get to join us but I did have her book announcement. 
Her choice is The Light Between Oceans by M L Stedman
Next Meeting Thursday March 17th. Mark your calendars and get your books! AND Start Reading.

Next to choose will be Cheryl, Ed, or Gaye, Jan, or Kathy 

Until next meeting...
