Date and Time: Sept. 18, 2021, 2-4 pm<br>
Location: Zoom meeting<br>
Book: The First 15 Lives of Harry August by Claire North
Coordinator: Robert Allen<br>
Attendees: Alex (new), Wayne (new), Wendy, Christian, DeVon, Bil, Ed
What we liked about this book: Liked the protagonist, especially compared to the author's last book we read (Touch), who was not like a likeable protagonist. Liked the bits of humor, which was very dry and British. The ending was very good and explains why the narrator tells the story in the first place. Although the concept was like the movie Groundhog Day, it was different enough to make it enjoyable.
What we didn’t like: Nothing! Very good choice of book.
Verdict: Unanimous Thumbs up!
Next Book Nominations:<br>
We Sang in the Dark by Joe Hart - Wendy<br>
Slow River by Nicola Griffith - Wendy<br>
The Stainless Steel Rat by Harry Harrison - Alex<br>
The One by John Marrs - Ed
