Michelle, Patti, Sheila, Katherine, Cherith, Sonia, Jake, Betsy and I had a great discussion on Tuesday about Mel Levine's book. People seemed to really enjoy the book and we all appreciated his insights regarding different kinds of minds.

We decided to change course slightly as we approach summer. For both our June and July/August meetings, we decided to read and discuss some young adult literature. For our next meeting, we decided we wanted to read one of the "Clique" series and figure out just why our middle school girls seem to like this type of book, and what we, as adults, think of it. After that, we are thinking of reading Eragon together to see why it is a favorite of so many of our middle school fantasy readers.

Next meeting: Tuesday, June 12th
Book: The Clique (Clique Series #1) by Lisi Harrison

I have ordered ten copies of the book to be delivered to Salk sometime next week. Copies are $10. I'll let people know when they arrive.

Hope to see you on the 12th,

Pauline
