Book club: Brave New World/The Girl on the Train

Shawshank, December 20, 2020

Just wanted to drop a quick note to all my book nerds out there. I don’t think I’ll be able to host the Lockup Library Book Club today. It’s just been too hectic here at Shady Acres.

Between helping my mom bake, I’ve shovelled the falling snow twice, cleaned and refilled the pellet stove, and when my mom is done baking, I’ll be taking over the kitchen to bake Crystal’s World Famous Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cake.

She’s going to give it to my dads boss, so this cake will be an international phenomenon.

So hopefully, next week the book club will be back in full force. But I will admit, I’m not too impressed with Brave New World. I don’t know if I have to be in the right frame of mind, or if I’m just not into it. I’ll try to read a little more before I decide either way. I think I’ve gone 100s of books since my last DNF.

Until next week, book nerds!
