June Book Club...Loft Style

We gossiped

We ate

We drank

And of course we stayed stylish even when the odds are against us



It was a good night! Everyone who fully finished The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao LOVED it. Kris Kolky even put it on her "My All Time Favorite Book List". Kathy said it "wasn't like anything she had ever read before" (in a good way) and Katie said she "laughed and cried".

Topics of conversation included Real Housewives of New York (seriously that Kelly is a wack-a-doo), bathing suits, Sex and the City 2 (i.e. the worst movie ever), dogs (puppy vs. shelter), Serbia, short sales, hair removal, socks, stress fractures, scoliosis, wetsuits, Moroccan oil, wedge sandals, and more Real Housewives of New York (Team Bethenny all the way!).

After a very emotional book suggestion round, our July Book is The Schopenhauer Cure. Lisa really pulled on everyone's heart strings and it worked! Look at your calendars, maybe July 29th?

So apparently the real action took place post BC on what is now referred to as "The Epic Red Line Home". The rumor is that four members took the red line home which included getting asked for money by a homeless woman with kids up "way past their bed time", a very interesting "miracle whip" vs "hellman's" conversation as well as Elizabeth almost getting beat up by a weird man for stepping on his baby toe.
