Ex Libris by Anne Fadiman




Ex Libris is a Latin phrase, meaning literally, "from books.  Let's join Sue as she leads us through a discussion of the very intellectual, cerebral and erudite Ex Libris by Anne Fadiman.  Warning, you might want to read this with your dictionary by your side... lol.

Note from Sue as per Danielle's email:
"Also Sue has suggested for our next discussion everyone bring one word from the book Ex Libris that they were unfamiliar with and the definition. If you are like me, you will have lots to choose from! Also, if you could bring a memory of when or where you got your love of reading or as Sue said, "we will hold a love of reading testimony meeting!" Should be a really fun discussion!"

Penny moves south

We say goodbye to another Chiclit as she moves to California.  We know she'll keep in touch via email.  We treasure all the good discussions we have had with her over the years and for her special "across the pond" perspective.  We'll remember her by keeping her mother's quote on our Chiclits box (top of the blog).
