October Book Club

Lisa hosted a great night on October 26th. Thank you for hosting Lisa! There was some great food and conversations! I think you started a new trend of having Book Clubs on Friday nights once and awhile.

September Book Club

Last night was a record for the RBTW ladies...we all read the book (well minus one) and almost everyone made it last night. It was a full house! Thanks for hosting Tiffany! Those slutty brownies were amazing!

This month we read Gone Girl, this is the new "it book". Gone Girl is a thriller, the author strings you along revealing just a little at a time to keep you turning the page. This was defiantly a "can't put it down type of a book". We had some great discussion questions given to us from another Book Club. We talked about Nick & Amy's marriage, Amy's weird parents,  And of course we had to cast the movie....Reese Witherspoon will play Amy and everyone else is sort of hard to cast. For Nick a few names were thrown out like Jeremy Renner, Josh Duhamel (if only he could act), Bradly Cooper, or Jeremy Sisto. 'Go should be Jennifer Carpenter from Dexter, Boney should be Frances McDormand, and Andie should be ScarJo. 

It's hard to list other topics of conversation, since there were so many of us last night there were a lot of different conversations going on at once. Usual stuff: dogs, Pinterest, handwriting, television shows, clothes, and vacations.

How I spent my summer vacation

She Gone...

This month we are reading Gone Girl, this book is all over the best-seller lists right now. I'm so happy we're reading this book at the beginning of it's popularity, something tells me this will be the new "must-read". Rumor has it Reese Witherspoon has already signed up to play Amy Dunne. So far it's a lot better then Fifty Shades of Dumb Grey. Sounds like a lot of our members have already finished this book and that is always a good sign!! We don't have the best track record over at RBTW.

You will want to finish this one, I don't think you'll want to come to BC without reading it, I think there will be way too many secrets given away. Plugging your ears may not work this month. Finish up ladies, two weeks!

August Book Club

Thanks so much for hosting Rachel, it was an awesome night on your roof top!! And the homemade food was fabulous, not to mention homemade pita bread!! We also welcomed a new member Ashley, hope we didn't scare you away!

Everyone enjoyed the book The Immoral Life of Henrietta Lacks, it was a wonderful tale. This book is filled with interesting facts about HeLa cells and how they changed research as we know it. We also learned who Henrietta was from the beginning of her life. The detective work that went into this week is so interesting. It was a wonderful read, RBTW would highly recommend this book!

Now down to business...we talked a lot about two things most of the night...The Olympics and family vacations. If you were to be an Olympic Athlete what would you want to be? Would you go on a family vacation for two full weeks? Both are hard questions...you would be surprised to know both these questions can be discussed on a beautiful night for HOURS and HOURS.

The night ended with some perfectly cooked S'more brownies, delish! Thanks Martha Rachel!! 

And the morning started like this.....

June Book Club

Summer is here! And this makes Book Club happy....how could you not be happy with this view!

(sorry iPhone pic)

In fact, we were all so happy that we completely forgot to discuss the book. Oops- darn Wine Book Club! We had some exciting news last night.....we are down one member but adding a teeny tiny member. Congrats to Kathy and we will miss you Liz!

We spent the night on the rooftop, it went some like this:

Kris: "Let's go to the rooftop."
Elizabeth: "Great. I love rooftops!"

There was a side conversation for those that read the book much later in the night, I don't know what they said but it sounds like those who read A Visit from the Goon Squad really enjoyed it.

Topics of conversation included: pregnancy, Street Festivals, white wine vs. red wine, flash mobs, Florida, student loans, NATO, protesting, summer hours, real estate, Las Vegas, cats, Protein Bar, crime, new jobs, weird whiskers, Nashville, college prices, and mortgages. We sound so serious, could Book Club be growing up...um...probably not. We didn't talk about hair removal or celebrities, weird!

Cheers to Kris on her first hosting, great job! Everyone enjoyed sitting outside on the rooftop, maybe too much! Thanks for having us, we will be back!
