SUMMARY:January: Book Club Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Join the Book Club as they discuss The Silent Patient by Alex Michaelides. \nSummary: \nAlicia Berenson’s life is seemingly perfect. A famous painter married to an in-demand fashion photographer\, she lives in a grand house with big windows overlooking a park in one of London’s most desirable areas. One evening her husband Gabriel returns home late from a fashion shoot\, and Alicia shoots him five times in the face\, and then never speaks another word. \nAlicia’s refusal to talk\, or give any kind of explanation\, turns a domestic tragedy into something far grander\, a mystery that captures the public imagination and casts Alicia into notoriety. The price of her art skyrockets\, and she\, the silent patient\, is hidden away from the tabloids and spotlight at the Grove\, a secure forensic unit in North London. \nTheo Faber is a criminal psychotherapist who has waited a long time for the opportunity to work with Alicia. His determination to get her to talk and unravel the mystery of why she shot her husband takes him down a twisting path into his own motivations—a search for the truth that threatens to consume him…. \nLocation & Host:\nBecky Hunter ’63\nBellaire TX 77401 \nTime: 10:00 AM \nRSVP to Becky at beckyhunter@att.net

SUMMARY:RESCHEDULED: Book Club Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Join the Book Club as they discuss Silkworm by Robert Galbraith. \nRobert Galbraith’s Cormoran Strike series is classic contemporary crime fiction from a master story-teller\, rich in plot\, characterization and detail. Galbraith’s debut into crime fiction garnered acclaim amongst critics and crime fans alike.  \nRobert Galbraith is a pseudonym of J.K. Rowling\, bestselling author of the Harry Potter series and The Casual Vacancy\, a novel for adults. After Harry Potter\, the author chose crime fiction for her next books\, a genre she has always loved as a reader. She wanted to write a contemporary whodunit\, with a credible back story.  \nJ.K. Rowling’s original intention for writing as Robert Galbraith was for the books to be judged on their own merit\, and to establish Galbraith as a well-regarded name in crime in its own right.  \nNow Robert Galbraith’s true identity is widely known\, J.K. Rowling continues to write the crime series under the Galbraith pseudonym to keep the distinction from her other writing and so people will know what to expect from a Cormoran Strike novel. \nLocation & Host:\nCatherine McDonald\, 98′\n825 Bayland Avenue\nHouston\, TX 77008 \nRSVP to Catherine McDonald ‘98 at catmc007 @ gmail.com

SUMMARY:October: Book Club Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Join the Book Club as they discuss The Rent Collector by Camron Steve Wright. \n“Survival for Ki Lim and Sang Ly is a daily battle at Stung Meanchey\, the largest municipal waste dump in all of Cambodia. They make their living scavenging recyclables from the trash. Life would be hard enough without the worry for their chronically ill child\, Nisay\, and the added expense of medicines that are not really working. Just when things seem most bleak\, Sang Ly learns a secret about the hated\, ill-tempered woman\, the “the rent collector”-she can read! Reluctantly she agrees to teach Sang Ly and does so with the same harshness she applied to her collection duties until they both learn how literacy has the power to instill hope and transcend circumstance. \nBased on a true story\, set in the abject poverty of Cambodia against the backdrop of political oppression and the atrocities of the Khmer Rouge.” \nRSVP directly to Catherine McDonald ‘98\, catmc007@gmail.com\, who is hosting the next Book Club meeting at her house at 1916 Albans Rd.\, 77005.  \n

SUMMARY:March: Book Club Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Join the Book Club as they discuss Little Fires Everywhere by Celeste Ng.  \n \n“Delectable and engrossing… A complex and compulsively readable suburban saga that is deeply invested in mothers and daughters…What Ng has written\, in this thoroughly entertaining novel\, is a pointed and persuasive social critique\, teasing out the myriad forms of privilege and predation that stand between so many people and their achievement of the American dream. But there is a heartening optimism\, too. This is a book that believes in the transformative powers of art and genuine kindness — and in the promise of new growth\, even after devastation\, even after everything has turned to ash.” \n—BOSTON GLOBE \nRSVP directly to Becky Hunter ’63 who is hosting the next Book Club meeting at her house at 4606 Willow in Bellaire TX \n

DESCRIPTION:Join the Book Club as they discuss a crime story on the waterfront entitled Manhattan Beach by Jennifer Egan who previously wrote A Visit from the Goon Squad that won a Pulitzer.  \n“An Amazon Best Book of October 2017: With Manhattan Beach\, Jennifer Egan—who dazzled readers with her Pulitzer Prize-winning\, A Visit from the Goon Squad—spins a classic historical novel. Classic in the sense that it’s virtually impossible to put down. Classic in its sepia toned portrait of New York: set on the Brooklyn docks during World War II\, when mobsters ruled\, the war loomed\, and a young girl dove her way into becoming the first female diver on the squad. Classic in its quintessentially satisfying characters: crooked gangsters\, disappearing fathers\, gritty sailors and an intrepid young woman equally at home in a 200 pound diving suit and a green silk dress who unites them all. Classic in its revelation of the dangerous\, altruistic and nefarious choices people make to support their family\, their country and themselves. Manhattan Beach is classic in all of its American glory.” — Al Woodworth \nRSVP directly to Catherine McDonald ’98 who is hosting the next Book Club meeting at her house\, 1916 Albans Rd\, Houston TX 77005. \n
