Gotta love the Swedes

Reasons to love Sweden:

1. Alexander Skarsgard
2. Let the Right One In - the greatest vampire novel of all time. Suck it, Twilight. Suck it harder, Vampire Diaries.
3. ABBA
4. Swiss Army knives (JK. That joke never gets old.)

So, in honor of this, and the fact that a lot of us have already read it, we picked The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larson.

The date will be November 13th at 4:00. Unlike Sweetwater, which had mediocre food and even more lukewarm service, The Shady Lady is much loved by Yelpers. They have a huge drink and dinner menu and if that doesn't work there is about 10 other places on the same block that we could hop to.

Winter's Bone

If anybody still checks this...the next meeting will be at Pete's Pizza Oct 9th. 4 o'clock. Reading Winter's Bone by Daniel Woodrell.

I suck.

So, when should be have the next meeting? July 31 sounds good for me. I will have my life back and no more traveling on the 28th. Woot!!

Field trip?

June's book

Hi, all!

Thanks to everyone who came last Saturday. We had a great time! I'm glad the weather cooperated.

Anyhow, there was some confusion about the book title that I've straightened out. The name of the book is actually "Touching the Void" by Joe Simpson. I just checked, and there are five copies now available from the Sacramento library (after I requested mine).

Happy reading!

BBQ/Book Club Meeting

Hey, folks! The next book club meeting is Saturday, June 5th at Trev's and my house. We'll be BBQing chicken and turkey burgers and whatever else catches our fancy. If you'd like to bring a potluck-style dish to share, that would be cool. Maybe salad, veggies, fruit, stuff like that, as it will probably be friggin' hot that day.

We live at 2 Spray Court (corner of Ironwood and Spray) off of Riverside Blvd in the Pocket area (43rd Street exit off of I-5 south). E-mail me if you need further info, or you can call me at 427-1928.

We hope to see you all on the 5th!
