Book Club’s Next Pick…

True Confections I wanted to have blog post up yesterday, I really did. But then Andrew took me out to dinner for my birthday the night before and a food coma sidelined those plans. But I’ve had a day or two to recover from all the deliciousness and think about other things again. Like how we have a new pick for book club!

Stacy and Erica chose True Confections by Katharine Weber. Can’t say I’ve ever heard of it, but I guess that’s part of the fun of book club… reading books I might not have gotten to otherwise. The book is described in part as: “Take chocolate candy, add a family business at war with itself, and stir with an outsider’s perspective. This is the recipe for True Confections, the irresistible new novel by Katharine Weber, a writer whose work has won accolades from Iris Murdoch, Madeleine L’Engle, Wally Lamb, and Kate Atkinson, to name a few.”

I certainly like chocolate candy so I’m already excited.

Book club will meet right after I get back from a trip to Europe so I know I’ll have plenty of time to read the pick. Maybe too much time because that is a lot of flying. But I can’t complain because… well, because I get to go to Europe. And now True Confections is coming with me.
