The Book Club meets at lunchtime on Tuesdays. The next meeting is Tuesday, 30th October to borrow the book, "The Girls" by Lori Lansens. All welcome!
A summary of the book: "the girls, Rose and Ruby Darlen, were both joined at the head (craniopagus twins) in a rural farming community in 1974. Abandoned by their frightened teenage mother, they are adopted by the eccentric nurse who attended their birth, and her husband, a gentle immigrant butcher. The sisters attempt to lead a normal life, but can't help being extraordinary. Now almost thirty, Rose and Ruby are on the verge of becoming the oldest living craniopagus twins in history."
