Our next meeting will be on May 27th at 7:30pm at Jodi's house. We'll be discussing Three Weeks With My Brother by Nicholas Sparks. Hold on! Don't roll your eyes at the name Nicholas Sparks yet. Yes, I really enjoy his fiction, but Three Weeks With My Brother is his nonfiction memoir, completely different from his "sappy" love stories. Three Weeks With My Brother is the story of the three week trip around the world that Nicholas Sparks took with his brother Micah. Between reading about exotic far-away places, you'll also get to read touching and humorous stories from the author's childhood. The Papillion library has one copy and I own a copy as well that I'm willing to lend out. So plan now to come on May 27th!
