Kristie, Kara & Brenda


Heidi, Britney & Shannon
We had a really great discussion about the book and about memories.  We talked a lot about how memories are formed and how they shape our decisions.  We all like the book but felt like the ending could have been a bit stronger. We also agreed that some parts were obviously written by a male. Hee Hee

We also talked in to the night about other random things.  It was a lot of fun!

One thing we talked about was Briney and her weird pose she kept making at the Oscars. In cae you missed it here it is.


See you next month to review People of the Book at Shannon's house!
