The Book Club Beauties met at Mona's on Sunday, April 19th. We had all finished reading Emma by Jane Austin, and discovered that it was quite delightful. And, it was pretty much a marathon book to read, with three volumes of about 19 chapters each, in Old English style of wording, too. We had to encourage each other via text to stick with it, and were all quite proud when we each finished just in time for our meeting.
Cathy discovered the library Libby app, and had listened to the audio book version. What a great idea! I found a printable picture of the Village of Highbury that I brought with for us to study. I wish I'd thought to look for one earlier while reading as it probably would have helped me visualize things better.

Mona always has such a pretty set up when she hosts our meetings. Kat brought us all some farm fresh eggs! I started thinking about what gruel really tasted like, and am thinking of making some in my crockpot. Cathy gifted us each with an emotional support pal. Which is kind of what we are to each other!
Our upcoming reading will be another Jane Austen novel, Pride and Prejudice, our next book club meeting planned for early June.
