December is a busy month, so it’s not surprising that subVERSEive had a number of members unable to attend the holiday party on December 12th. We persevered and joined up with the Monday Night library book club, which was meeting on the main floor. There were plenty of sweet treats and lots of cheer to go around, so this might be a fun joint book club event to continue annually. Here are the books that we shared with links to the library catalogue:
Fiction:
I, Claudius by Robert Graves (Colleen)
Bachelor Brothers’ Bed and Breakfast by Bill Richardson (Madeleine)
The Weird Sisters by Eleanor Brown (Sharleen)
Mister Pip by Lloyd Jones (Iris)
The Eye of the World (The Wheel of Time series no. 1) by Robert Jordan (Kevin)

Cry, the Beloved Country by Alan Paton (Linda Marie)
