Reading Between the Wines November Book Club

This month the book club gathered at my house – I was so excited! About 15 of us got together to eat, drink, catch up on what’s going on in each others’ lives, and of course, discuss the chosen book for that month.

November’s book choice was Before I Go to Sleep by S.J. Watson.

Each member brings a dish and a bottle of wine to the club meetings…you can imagine how much fun it is! This time around we had lots of reds and whites to drink. To eat:

Smoked chicken wings
Veggies and dip
Fancy cheese with apples and crackers
Chips and black bean dip
Fried chicken
Figs wrapped in bacon with blue cheese
Candy
Spinach dip and bread bowl
Pepperoni bread
Rice Krispies sushi…you have to see the pic!
Amazing pies and cupcakes
there’s more…I know I missed some.

What was left of the cheese, apples and crackers

It took us an hour or so to catch up, then we were down to business. Erin was the moderator, per say, with questions in hand! It’s amazing how well the conversation flowed – and how interesting it was to hear each person’s take on the book. This book in particular was an interesting choice. As a whole, I believe the group liked it – it evoked interesting conversations about marriage, trust, family, relationships.

By the end of the evening, we were all well-fed and ready to learn about the next book choice. Carolyn picked The Life of Pi….I am so excited to start reading it!
