No "Bees" for us.

Don't be heading off to the theatre on Monday night as it looks as if the movie we want isn't showing in Sarnia. I looked in the Observer and there is a half page review of the "Secret Life of Bees", however there is no listing for it at the cineplex.com site.


Hopefully someone at the theatre will realise that it would be worth their while to show this movie and bring it in. I can't believe they are showing drivel like 'Beverly Hills Chihuahua' and not "The Secret Life of Bees". If it doesn't end up here, perhaps it will be out on DVD in time for us to watch it at Christmas.


So we had a lovely time at John's on Monday night. Everyone liked the book. Donna was missing as she was doing an east coast Thanksgiving with her family. Welcome to Nicole, a Finch regular who was full of great ideas and contributed a lot to the discussion.


-I picked up a second hand copy of "The Clan of the Cave Bear". Let me know if you want it.

-The name of the book we were talking about is"The Divine Secrets of the Ya Ya Sisterhood".


So the next time we meet is Tuesday at Mall Road library at 7 pm. ( Could you pick me up Catherine?) Our next discussion is on November 1oth, hopefully at Coffee Lodge Exmouth. I'll let you know if anything changes. We are getting some carpeting in at Finch, so it should be a lot quieter next time we are there.


The picture of the bag of books is from when Julie and I were liking the idea of calling ourselves the BAG ladies, Book Appreciation Group. Does anyone know where the quotation, "On pleasure bent again" comes from?

  1. Aww...... thank you Sue!! I had a wonderful time myself! Its fun to realise how many different points of view you can pull from just one book and so many different minds!! I am really enjoying the new book for next month, I wish I could quite my job and just read forever!
