Join Us for Book Club!

by Cristi Minard

Puddy’s Pages book club, formerly the LCR book club, is named after our beloved leader Meribeth Cooper. Puddy was her nickname and after her passing, the book club wanted to remember Meribeth, her love of books and her ability to bring us together. She was the leader for 6 years and the book club has met for more than 20 years!

My favorite aspect of Puddy’s Pages is the casual setting where we discuss the books, and members share opinions as well as life experiences. Members have even shared memories and photos from travels in regions related to the books. Hearing their firsthand experiences makes for great discussion and provides a deeper perspective on a topic or setting. We even learned how an elephant chased a member!

The club meets every 6 weeks, and readers are welcome to bring food and drinks to share. At the end of the year, readers suggest books for the next reading season. We then vote on the books we would like to read. Each month, we ask a volunteer to lead that month’s book discussion which can be done either in-person or virtually using whatever format they prefer.

Puddy’s Pages will have their kick-off party in September for the 2024-25 reading season. A Zoom link is also available each month for anyone who cannot attend in person. Please join us for the season or even just a month. All are welcome!
