Book Club: Leaving Lucy Pear by Anna Solomon

by Josie Zeman

Lucy PearShomrei Book Club

We had a lively discussion of “All the Rivers” by Dorit Rabinyan on Monday night (Oct 16),  plus a good turnout!

There was a suggestion that we try a meeting after Kiddush Lunch on Shabbat to attract new members.  We will pick a date  in the Spring, to explore this option!

Our next selection is “Leaving Lucy Pear” by Anna Solomon.  We will meet on Monday, Nov. 20 at 7:30 at Congregation Shomrei Emunah.  The book is available in the distribution  system of the libraries.

Bring a friend, a partner, but do join us!

Look forward to seeing you then.

Josie

She volunteers to do public relations outreach for Shomrei, helps in the office, and the kitchen, organizes sessions of the monthly Book Club, takes classes with the rabbi to learn all the things about Judaism that she never knew growing up in a Reform congregation in the South. She is proud to be a member of this dynamic synagogue!
