Pachinko - October 2022




This month we're reading Pachinko by Min Jin Lee.     I have the book club set - contact me if you need a copy.      It's a long book and we'll be meeting at the end of October to discuss.  The book club set is due back November 1.  If the weather is decent enough, we'll meet outside (dress warm and bring a blanket!)

The meeting will be at 2pm on Wednesday, October 26.     If the weather is not cooperative, then we'll be on ZOOM at 8pm.

The book is being made into a tv series - if you have Apple TV - you can watch the first season
