GOOD READS BOOK DISCUSSION – FEBRUARY
Our next meeting will be Tuesday, Feb. 18 at 7:30 PM by zoom to discuss “The Leavers” by Lisa Ko.
“In a time when immigration is a political issue, this novel puts a human face on a very complex situation. It tells the story of a woman who came to New York from China, created a family, was deported, and what happened after her sudden disappearance.” – Yvette Olson, Magnolia’s Bookstore, Seattle, WA
Upcoming: “Circle of Hope: A Reckoning with Love, Power, and Justice in an American Church” by Eliza Griswold will be the next book.
“With patience, intelligence, and compassion, Eliza Griswold traces the history of a Christian community and its leadership as they struggle to remain faithful to a radical vision through times of immense stress. A sharply contemporary book, painfully honest, stubbornly hopeful.” – Rowan Williams, author of “Passions of the Soul”
