June meeting - Where'd you go Bernadette?

The May meeting was sparsely attended, but we had fun discussing Killing Lincoln by Bill O'Reilly.  Treats were baked pineapple and banana cake.  

Next month we will be reading Where'd you go Bernadette by Maria Semple.  We will meet in the Turner Room on June 24 at 3pm.  Books are available at the circulation desk and discussion sheets can be picked up or are available online.
