Since I'm hosting book club for the first time, I thought I'd make up a little surprise for everyone. Bookmarks!
I chose the book I Capture The Castle by Dodie Smith, a successful female playwright who later became known for the children's classic 101 Dalmations. It was written in 1948 and was out of print for many years in the States until reissued in 1998. I rarely laugh out loud when I read, but the sharp humor of this novel was just my style. It's also tinged with the tragedies of poverty and loneliness. I truly loved it - I'm eager to hear how all the other ladies felt about it.
The bookmarks are beautiful! Thanks for hosting such a fun get-together Shea!
