The Great Gatsby by F.Scott Fitzgerald
We traveled right back to the roaring 20's for this one. Oh, what a time we had at this meeting. Plenty of hidden booze, good records and fun flapper costumes. This was by far one of my favorite book clubs. We had plenty of appetizers for snacking. Some of us researched recipes from the time period to stay true to the book. Katie ordered everyone flasks to wear tucked in garters. Perfect for a book during the time of Prohibition. If you want to go all out at your meeting stick with something from this time period. The book was not a favorite read for all but enjoyable for some.
Katie picked the charity of the month for our year of giving back. We sealed up leftovers to pass on to the homeless in the Central Ohio area.

It is so easy and a few of us continued to contribute long after this meeting.
