I'm new too and enjoying feeling connected from my desk to so many great women.
I just finished the Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society, my book club's pick for this month. I resisted it -- don't know what I thought it would be, based on the title. I held out for about 20 pages, then was swept away. Feeling a little sick on the couch helped to keep me focused, and I read it straight through. I love the way the author used the light touch of brief letters to tell a story that could have been overwhelmingly heartbreaking and agonizing. And a happy ending, too. I recommend it.
