Didn't read the book.

Get the online 30 second cliff notes

is it about cameras ?

No Cliffnotes. I just checked my email for the name and it's one of these modern authors who is a novel mill. These are the same women who made me read The Help.

Never heard of the Help.

Though, I did strum my guitar this morning.

So, there are some questionable choices made but then they redeem themselves.

I had a beer las night called "Even Less Jesus". It is an imperial stout mised with burgandy grape juice.

It tasted like red wine stout.

It was awesome.

I followed that up with my latest batch of Limoncello to which I added a tinly little bit of orange tincture. It was fantastic.

But then again, they are the same women who voted to read Pride and Prejudice and Zombies when it was my turn to host

What's up with all the Zombie stuff in the last few years ?

Don't people know that they're walking dead people ? Most people would just go .. "eeewww"

They made it into a movie a few years ago. Got all kinds of hype. You might have caught mention of that?

Sounds like a real nail-biter.

Zombies used to be cool until the Hipsters got ahold of them.

Damn hipsters. Ruined Zombies, Bacon and Craft Beer. Not the mention the glasses frames I've been wearing since I was 10.

You see, I was doing all that stuff before it was cool.

That was abotu the book club, not the plot of the book.

Though it DOES describe the plot of a lot of crappy books that make it to hte bestseller list.

This is why I don't read bestsellers.

I don't read as much as I used to. I spend all day proofreading legalese in the form of health insurance contracts, the last thing I want to do when I get home is crack a book.
My kids on the other hand are required to read a half hour a day. My 12 year old just got done reading "The Zombie Survival Guide" by Max Brooks (which is AWESOME by the way) and now runs through the house armed to the teeth with nerf guns making Mom and I quiz him on surviving the zombie apocalypse.
