SUMMARY:The Genre Jumpers Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Our second adult book club\, The Genre Jumpers\, meets on the first Tuesday of the month at 6pm. We read and discuss the same book\, we read 3 months of one genre then JUMP to the next. This book club is currently full\, but you may be added to the wait list in the event of a participant dropping out. \n  \n  \n  \nFor this meeting we are discussing our first of 3 Historical Fiction: The Four Winds by Kristen Hannah.  \n“Texas\, 1934. Millions are out of work and a drought has broken the Great Plains. Farmers are fighting to keep their land and their livelihoods as the crops are failing\, the water is drying up\, and dust threatens to bury them all. One of the darkest periods of the Great Depression\, the Dust Bowl era\, has arrived with a vengeance. \nIn this uncertain and dangerous time\, Elsa Martinelli—like so many of her neighbors—must make an agonizing choice: fight for the land she loves or go west\, to California\, in search of a better life. The Four Winds is an indelible portrait of America and the American Dream\, as seen through the eyes of one indomitable woman whose courage and sacrifice will come to define a generation.” \n

SUMMARY:The Genre Jumpers Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Our second adult book club\, The Genre Jumpers\, meets on the first Tuesday of the month at 6pm. We read and discuss the same book\, we read 3 months of one genre then JUMP to the next. This book club is currently full\, but you may be added to the wait list in the event of a participant dropping out. \n  \n  \n  \n  \nThis meeting we are discussing our last of 3 Contemporary Fiction: Nineteen Minutes by Jodi Picoult. \n“In nineteen minutes\, you can mow the front lawn\, color your hair\, watch a third of a hockey game. In nineteen minutes\, you can bake scones or get a tooth filled by a dentist; you can fold laundry for a family of five….In nineteen minutes\, you can stop the world\, or you can just jump off it. In nineteen minutes\, you can get revenge. \nSterling is a small\, ordinary New Hampshire town where nothing ever happens — until the day its complacency is shattered by a shocking act of violence. In the aftermath\, the town’s residents must not only seek justice in order to begin healing but also come to terms with the role they played in the tragedy. For them\, the lines between truth and fiction\, right and wrong\, insider and outsider have been obscured forever. Josie Cormier\, the teenage daughter of the judge sitting on the case\, could be the state’s best witness\, but she can’t remember what happened in front of her own eyes. And as the trial progresses\, fault lines between the high school and the adult community begin to show\, destroying the closest of friendships and families. \nNineteen Minutes is New York Times bestselling author Jodi Picoult’s most raw\, honest\, and important novel yet. Told with the straightforward style for which she has become known\, it asks simple questions that have no easy answers: Can your own child become a mystery to you? What does it mean to be different in our society? Is it ever okay for a victim to strike back? And who — if anyone — has the right to judge someone else?”
