You love romance? The Bible is the greatest love story of all time.
You love fantasy? The Bible is the breathtaking fantasy that's come true.
You love thriller or mysteries? The Bible definitely has thrills & mysteries, but it ultimately has the most satisfactory and triumphant ending one can imagine.
Or do you love nonfiction & facts? The Bible, I believe, no matter how out of the world it seems, is just that: facts- the infallible Word of God that never goes out of date.

"It reminded me of ____ but in space."
"I read ____ in high school, and actually liked it."
"It's like a cross between ____ and ____ with a little Harry Potter thrown in."
"YOU'VE NEVER READ ____?!?"
You know the drill.
Your friends reference it, your husband/wife/boyfriend/girlfriend/"sort of thing?" raves about it, even your favorite movies quote it, or it IS your favorite movie but you've never read the book.
This group is for those of us for whom one of the following may apply...
- we have finally developed a taste for reading and are severely behind on classics;
- we kindaaa, sortaaa, but actually slept through English class in high school and used Sparknotes/Hollywood remakes to write our book reports;
- we buy a book that everyone is talking about and it sits on our shelf, and sits there... and sits there;
- we've heard the hype and are finally getting around to reading the actual book;
- we want to expand our horizons beyond the single genre we usually read and want to do so with some time-tested material;
- we just plain old want to get everyone off our backs for not having read _____.
Every month we'll choose three books to read:
1) a classic (that everyone has probably read but us),
2) a "modern" classic or popular book that everyone is talking about, and
3) a bookshelf catch-up in which we choose a book the group has already read to catch-up with other members.

The poems in Ghost Season were completed between 2000 and 2023. The book is a travelogue, a collection of poems written on a veranda in Nicosia, Cyprus; on a bench in Central Park; in the Vatican Museum, driving west through the Poconos...it’s a personal atlas of the first quarter of the 21st century, one stitched with genuflection to the poetry of Auden, Cavafy, Cummings, Frost, Jack Gilbert and Sandburg. These are eulogies for love lost, hymns to a marriage, highway songs, odes to fatherhood, stories of cities and seas…poems from a ghost season.
