April Book Club

Written by Guest Blogger, Lisa

For April's Book Club, we gathered at Katy K and Emily's place on Southport. Katy did a wonderful job hosting! Delicious snacks were served including some gems from our beloved Ina Garten. As I write this, food from last night would be awesome right about now!

Our April book was the classic The Great Gatsby. Let's just get this out of the way: lots of us read it but somehow it didn't make its way into our discussion. We all agreed that we are definitely going to see it in the theater and make it a Book Club outing. Leo is quite a draw and looking hot as ever.

This book club was particularly special because our mini-member Corinne was able to make an appearance.  We were so thrilled she was able to fit us into her calendar even though we are all a bit jealous of her long and naturally curled lashes. She clearly enjoyed the girl talk and Sofie did as well.

Topics of discussion included crazy moms - one in particular, Botox, the joys of dating, La Baby (do NOT try to get rid of La Baby), Lincoln Square, painting, the difficulty of finding a good rug and American Girl. We also discussed some summer BC outings, including May Fest and Turtle Racing! Katy K, you're going to have to send out the details on that!

The only person who had a book suggestion was Corinne. She cannot get enough of this book and has read it countless times. She also thinks it would be a quick and easy read for all of us. The book is Baby Beluga and it is available on Amazon. Whoever hosts next should consider this one!

All in all it was a great night as usual. Thanks again Katy for hosting!
Hope I wasn't too much like this by the end of the night:
