Our First book club discussion was lively and invigorating. Participants analyzed character, setting, plot, point of view/perspective/ author's craft and intentions, and themes.  We also looked at some  Critical literary lenses  to talk through the text.  It was great to have book club veterans and those who made this their first! We will be choosing our next read soon.  If you are interested in joining, please email me.                                                     .
