We had just four people online (Brad, Beth, Christine, and Peggy) and book lists from Peggy and Beth, so only 13 books total for this month. Brad’s vision problems continue, so fewer books from him. He is working his way through Gregg Hurwitz’s Orphan X series, and...
Book Lovers SIG: Book Talks
Book Talk – February 9th, 2025
Great book club in February. We had eight people online, including Jim, who we hadn’t seen in a couple months. His volunteer work has kept him pretty busy, including running some kind of regional math competition. Tim was a newcomer last month, and he joined us...
Book Talk – January 12th, 2025
Another really good Book Lovers SIG this month. Hadn’t heard from John in a long time, and it was early last summer that we heard from Nathan, so swell to see him again. Plus: Cynthia, who was new to our group last month, returned for another go. Glad she decided...

Book Talk – October 13th, 2024
Back to normal in October; the only person we were missing was Linda, who was on travel this month so couldn’t join us, but promises a double-helping of reading reports in November. Both Jim and Michael made it back after a several-month absence. Last month Jim was...
Book Talk – September 8th, 2024
Feast or famine with book club. Last month we had one of our largest groups; this month just three people made it. Peggy and Linda were the only readers that were there at the start. Sheila, Christina, and Jim let me know in advance that they wouldn’t be able to...
Book Talk – August 11th, 2024
One of the biggest turnouts of the year for our August Book Lovers SIG. Two new participants joined us, Judith from Boulder and Sheila from Kansas City. This is a good thing; always nice to have new readers join us. Regulars Beth, Linda, Peggy, Michael, and...
Book Talk – July 14th, 2024
Always good to see everyone at Book Lovers SIG. Regulars Beth, Peggy, and Christina were on hand, and Jim joined us after a several-month absence. Linda couldn't make it but did share her reading. Christina was touch and go, as she has had some back problems, which...

Great to see everyone at the June Book Lovers SIG. Regulars Linda, Peggy, and Beth rounded out the group. Christina couldn’t make it, but did send in her list. In all, 46 books were read/discussed/reviewed. The full list can be found here:...
