Our Next Meeting’s Going to Suck! | November 20, 2009

Sorry, I know it’s groan-worthy, but I couldn’t resist.

We’ll be meeting at 8 Dec. 17 at Claire’s to talk about Stephanie Meyer’s Twilight. Teresa and Charlotte will be joining us by Skype, a Makioka first!

Optional: Read about Edward’s ancestors in Bram Stoker’s Dracula, J. Sheridan Le Fanu’s Carmilla, and/or various vampire stories by Arthur Canon Doyle. If you don’t have a chance to get to the library, you can read them online, since they are all in the public domain (for those who can recall our Moveable Feast copyright discussion).

Not everyone will be able to make this impromptu, added meeting. Our next regularly scheduled meeting will be January 14 at Beth’s where we will discuss Paul Auster’s Travels in the Scriptorium. As a few of us noted, Edeet’s astute take on Auster was validated in last week’s New York Times Book Review piece on Auster’s most recent book.
