About me40-something bibliophiles back in Seattle, returned from exile in eastern Washington state and so happy to be back. Even with all the rain! She cooks, plays horn, and is into tech stuff; he's into music, film, and literature but also does web programming. Both read excessively.

I’m sending this note because you are a member of the Seattleites group.
A few of us are starting a book club and I hope that you will consider joining us.
Our first book is In the Woods by Tana French. Our first meeting will be on Thursday, October 2nd, at Third Place Books in Lake Forest Park at 7pm.
See our thread called Book Clubs? on the Seattleites group or you can reply to me if you want more info.
Thanks - Carol

I see that Pauline Kael's collections (from the New Yorker) are a complete set.
I should read some of her reviews instead of that Anthony Lane.
Is the scanned complete New Yorker worth it, for bookreaders? I have been thinking for months about getting it.
Yours.

Lucky lucky you, going to Powell's. I've never been; I would love to go even if my spending limit was $1.00. The no spending limit part is just a pipe dream, really... ::grin::

It's interesting to see how many of these libraries intersect as "similar". We have at least a couple in common.
