We had a lengthy discussion on the 100 year Old Man Book last night at
my house.  It was a quirky, somewhat funny, light summer read.
Thanks to Jeremy French-Lawyer and Kavya Mirchia for coming and
participating in the discussion.  We hope you will return!
The group last night decided on our next read which I'm sure all of you
will enjoy!  See everyone in the Fall.

 More About the Book:  For years, rumors of the *Marsh Girl* have
haunted Barkley Cove, a quiet town on the North Carolina coast. So in
late 1969, when handsome Chase Andrews is found dead, the locals
immediately suspect Kya Clark, the so-called Marsh Girl. But Kya is not
what they say. Sensitive and intelligent, she has survived for years
alone in the marsh that she calls home, finding friends in the gulls and
lessons in the sand. Then the time comes when she yearns to be touched
and loved. When two young men from town become intrigued by her wild
beauty, Kya opens herself to a new life*until the unthinkable happens.
 Perfect for fans of Barbara Kingsolver and Karen Russell, Where the
Crawdads Sing is at once an exquisite ode to the natural world, a
heartbreaking coming-of-age story, and a surprising tale of possible
murder. Owens reminds us that we are forever shaped by the children we
once were, and that we are all subject to the beautiful and violent
secrets that nature keeps.
