We talked about our next BBNB year. We decided to meet in August, on Tuesday the 13th. We’ll discuss The Other Einstein, by Marie Benedict (the author of The Personal Librarian, which we read in ’22-’23). The Other Einstein is about Albert Einstein’s first wife and how he took credit for some of her brilliant ideas. Google the title to read about this book.
We discussed several other books which we may choose to read this next year. There are so many very interesting books available! At our 08/13 meeting, we will discuss books and vote on which to read and discuss in the coming year.
All are welcome as BBNB is an open group. We welcome book suggestions. We take turns presenting the books and leading the discussion. There’s no pressure: we are a mellow group.
If you want to attend the 08/13 meeting and are not already on the BBNB email list, please let me know of your interest by August 1st, so I can include you in the emails about book suggestions and place of the August meeting. (We are thinking it’ll be in the Library at the Laguna Lake Mobile Estates.) I believe this is the last Newsletter until September, so information about the 08/13 meeting will go to only folks I have on the email list for BBNB
We call ourselves “Brown Bag ‘N’ Books,” because people are welcome to bring a brown bag lunch to eat while we are discussing the books.
