My book group met last night to discuss Warmth of Other Suns. Fascinating book, well researched, poignant, thought provoking. Every one in the group (even those who weren't able to attend) seemed to like it in spite of its length. It was a very moving read and even though the lives and events were in the past it is very relevant to today's culture and society. We were a small group and I had forgotten to bring the discussion questions but we didn't have a problem.

It's been awhile since I posted. My husband and I were in Hawaii for several weeks to escape what we hoped would be a harsh winter. In actuality it was quite mild at home, almost spring like with only one snow storm. Maui weather was perfect nearly every day - sunny and warm. I read lots of books and interestingly enough I had several non-fiction reads with me. I usually don't read non fiction but there are two selections for my book club- Warmth of Other Suns and Unbroken and I read both while vacationing. Excellent books, well written, well researched, and I found them to be easy to read. Almost like fiction. Have been having computer issues and it looks as if I will have to purchase a new computer to have enough memory for all the programs and gadgets. My old computer could be upgraded but has limitations and it probably isn't worth the effort. So for now no pictures of Maui- everything has been moved off the old computer.
