My bookgroup

I belong to a great Mothers Group here in central New Jersey.I highly recoomend joining one if you are a mom who needs to connect with other moms, the support is amazing. I also head the bookgroup for this group. It is made up of about 13-15 moms all who share a passion for reading. Not bad considering when I started the bookgroup it only consisted of 3 of us. All of whom im proud to say are all still members. For September we are reading " A Tree Grows in Brooklyn" by Betty Smith. I have always wanted to read this book. Somehow I must have went to a non progressive high school (High Point Regional, class of 1990) because we never had to read this book! Many of my fellow memebers are reading it for the 2nd or 3rd time. Anyway im really enjoying it. Let me know what you think of this book.Did you have to read it in high school?
