Oconee Book group choice for March
So Pat has been super busy rewriting the script for the twice postponed "Dancing with the Stars, Part 2" with Courtney Gale, John Keane, and many other Athens and Oconee County dancers and non-dancers which was the victim of the recent slowly retreating snow storm. But read the book already? OK!
The book group the Oconee Democrats sponsor is reading a wonderful book
in March. Consider joining us!
We've chosen "The Nine: Inside the Secret World of the Supreme Court" by
Jeffrey Toobin. The New York Times described the book as "engaging,
erudite, candid and accessible, often hard to put down."
Toobin graduated magna cum laude from Harvard Law School, where he was
editor of the Harvard Law Review (a prestigious role President Obama
carried out later). Toobin is a staff writer for New Yorker magazine
and senior legal analyst for CNN.
"The Nine" was chosen as one of the best books of the year (2007) by
publications as wide ranging as Fortune, Newsweek, The Economist, and
Entertainment Weekly. In the book, Toobin provides an in-depth
examination of events such as the Bush v. Gore case that enabled George
W. Bush to become president despite a hotly contested recount that was
still underway in Florida.
The group will meet to discuss the book on Thursday, March 19th, at Five
Points Deli on Epps Bridge Parkway, with the conversation getting
underway at 6:15. We meet the third Thursday of every month to discuss
books about politics, history, and the natural world around us. Come a
little early to order dinner or coffee and to chat!
The book is available at a 25% discount at Books Galore in Watkinsville.
For more information, feel free to contact me.
Back to reading!
