Our last meeting of the year for book club. We read Mothering Sunday by Graham Swift which the group liked. We disagreed about the ambiguity of Paul’s accident - was it suicide? Also discussed the walking around the house naked. #DiaryOfaLibrarian

Judy Blume is fantastic but SEHinton published The Outsiders three years earlier. That is the book credited with creating the YA genre This is a good article otherwise https://t.co/b2uMUYlLR3
