We had a great discussion about West With Giraffes last night. Alecia also made a delicious pumpkin dessert and had ice cream to put on top.
Melissa has picked Dracula by Bram Stoker for our book for October. Here is some information about the book:
During a business visit to Count Dracula's castle in Transylvania, a young English solicitor finds himself at the center of a series of horrifying incidents. Jonathan Harker is attacked by three phantom women, observes the Count's transformation from human to bat form, and discovers puncture wounds on his own neck that seem to have been made by teeth. Harker returns home upon his escape from Dracula's grim fortress, but a friend's strange malady — involving sleepwalking, inexplicable blood loss, and mysterious throat wounds — initiates a frantic vampire hunt. The popularity of Bram Stoker's 1897 horror romance is as deathless as any vampire. Its supernatural appeal has spawned a host of film and stage adaptations, and more than a century after its initial publication, it continues to hold readers spellbound.
We will meet at 7:30 on October 17 at Debby's house to discuss the book. Hope to see you there.
