Advisory Council VP, Susan Hall

What is the last book that you read? Teddy Isaac - happy to have read Black Fortunes by Shoman Wells. Paula Kelly - enjoyed reading The Confederates of Dunces by John Kennedy Toole and Walker Perry. Pat Walton - Three Christmas Angel Stories by Debbie Macomber was a very good joyful book. Marsha Schwartz - enjoyed reading Dangerous Embrace by Nora Roberts. Ira Gordon - Unfreedom of the Press by Mark R. Levin was very interesting and informative - dealt with the dishonesty of the press. Diana Howrilka - if you are a history buff, she recommends Ken Follett's book three of his Century Trilogy War stories collection - Edge of Eternity. Connie Mallillin - continuously reads the Bible. Annette Jackson - liked reading The Untethered Soul by Michael A. Singer.

As a member of a library book club, we recently read a perfectly titled book - The Library Book by Susan Orlean. It dealt with the Los Angeles library fire in 1986 and discussed library workers, books and other interesting data.
