2012 Book Club Reading List

Ta-Da. Here are the books we are reading for 2012. If you are near the South Austin area, anyone is welcome to join us. We meet the last Monday of every month (with the exception of November and December - too crazy that time of year).

We are meeting this coming Monday ( a week from tonight) at 7:30pm to discuss The Hunger Games trilogy. I know many of you have read this, so if you want to join us for a fun evening reliving Katniss's adventures, email me: darsey.bartling@yahoo.com
