"Angels of Morgan Hill" by Donna VanLiere, a fictional book about a family in Morgan Hill, Tennesee. Jane's abusive and alcoholic father dies and a new black family, the Turners move in near their farm. Jane and her family have to make some far reaching decisions, that will affect their lives deeply. Jane realizes that there are angels among us, helping us through each day.
The discussion on the book was divided. Several in the group really liked the book, felt it was enjoyable reading, a nice feel good book. Others felt that the characters were a little contrived, not quite believable, predictable in their behavior and not compelling reading.
Ladies of Walden Pond, a book club, established in 1998 is a delightful bunch of women who get together each month to discuss, disect, deride, denote, deplore, describe,determine,deduce,define, and digest our book of the month using dictum and much dialectic decorum. We have a great time and there is much laughter and fun involved as well as great food, trips to Shakespeare Festival, home tours, etc.
Different Drummer
"If a man does not keep pace with his companions,perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away." ~Henry David Thoreau
