Welcome back Sandra! This will be my last act as the substitute to the substitute organizer (Holly = lazy).
To summarize our meeting last night: John is an ass, the cats were awesome, the poetry didn't seem to add anything to the book, and in general everyone liked Golden Gate in the same way you might enjoy a soap opera.
Think of suggestions for the next book and send them to us by next Monday at 5pm. My suggestion is below....
I suggest we read some Shakespeare. I picked The Tempest, because it is a fairly famous play, has some comedy, a monster, a shipwreck, a fairy, revenge and a love story. As an added bonus: Cal Shakes is doing a performance of it in June (Book club field trip?)

I loved the fact it was written in poetry. If written in prose, the plot would have dragged into a talky soap-opera. This way, the plot advanced more quickly and the emotions were heightened.
