BEFORE WELCOME BACK, ONE OF MY
FAVORITE TIMES OF THE WEEK IT'S
TIME FOR THE BOOK CLUB AND THE
REGULAR VISIT FROM THE
SPRINGFIELD GREENE COUNTY
LIBRARY.
PLEASE HELP US WELCOME KATIE
FOR HABRE AND HOLLY CHILDERS.
WELCOME YOU GUYS.
THANK YOU, WE ARE HAPPY TO
BE HERE.
THANKS FOR COMING AND THESE
ARE FROM THE SCHWEITZER
BRENTWOOD BRANCH LIBRARY,
CORRECT.>> YES.
GOOD STUFF I WANT TO JUMP
RIGHT INTO THE BOOKS BECAUSE
YOU KNOW HOW I AM, ALL ABOUT
BOOKS AND I TELLING YOU I HAVE
TO ADD HOME AND I'M WORRIED I'M
NOT GOING TO HAVE TIME TO PLOW
THROUGH THEM BUT I WILL TRY.
YOU CAN DO IT.
[LAUGHING]
LET'S TALK ABOUT THESE FIRST
OF ALL, HOLLY I WILL START WITH
YOU.
GOODBYE VITAMINS?
WHAT ON EARTH IS THAT ABOUT?
BY RACHEL CON, ABOUT THE
CHARACTER NAMED RUTH WHO IS 30
AND HEADS JUST BROKEN UP WITH
HER FIANCI.
SHE GOES HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS
TO SIT WITH HER FAMILY AND
REALIZES THAT HER FATHER WHO
WAS A HISTORY PROFESSOR IS
DECLINING WITH DEMENTIA.
HIS HEALTH IS DECLINING SO
RUTH'S MOTHER ASKS HER TO STAY
FOR A YEAR AND IT'S THE STORY
OF A FAMILY COPING WITH THE
FATHER'S ILLNESS.
BUT WHAT I REALLY LOVED ABOUT
THIS BOOK IS THE FAMILY IS VERY
SWEET AND VERY LOVING, THERE'S
A LOT OF HUMOR IN IT.
THAT'S MY QUESTION, IT'S NOT
NECESSARILY A SAD BUT, THERE'S
AN UPLIFTING COMPONENT TO THIS
BOOK.
ABSOLUTELY, IT'S DEFINITELY
HOPEFUL AND FEELING, THE FAMILY
GETS TOGETHER AND DOES A NUMBER
OF CREATIVE THINGS TO HELP
THEIR FATHER AS HE IS DEALING
WITH THE ILLNESS AS WELL.
I THINK I HAVE LIVED THROUGH
THIS ALREADY BUT IT WOULD BE
INTERESTING TO SEE HOW SOMEBODY
ELSE DOCUMENTS.
THE NEXT BOOK IS CALLED BEHIND
HER EYES.
LET ME SHOW YOU WHAT THIS ONE
LOOKS LIKE.
WHAT IS THIS ONE ABOUT?
THIS ONE IS COMPLETELY
DIFFERENT, IT IS A
PSYCHOLOGICAL THRILLER AND HAS
LOTS OF TWISTS AND TURNS.
VERY EXCITING.
THE PREMISES A SINGLE MOM
LIVING IN LONDON, SHE WORKS A
JOB, DOESN'T DO MUCH BUT GOES
OUT AND IS SUPPOSED TO MEET A
FRIEND FOR THE EVENING.
THE FRIEND DOESN'T SHOW AND SHE
MEETS A MAN AND THE SPARKS FLY.
SHE ENDS UP KISSING HIM WHICH
IS A BIG DEAL.
THEN SHE GOES TO WORK THE NEXT
MONDAY AND REALIZES, IT IS HER
NEW BOSS.
SO THEN SHE ALSO REALIZES THAT
HER BOSS IS MARRIED.
AND BECOMES FRIENDS WITH THE
BOSSES WIFE.
THOSE ARE THE TWO, THAT IS THE
CRUCIBLE IN WHICH THE STORY
STARTS TO UNFOLD.
THIS IS AWKWARD.
I THINK I WANT TO READ IT.
IS AWKWARD BUT THEN ALSO, IT
GOES ON THIS CRAZY
PSYCHOLOGICAL THRILL RIDE OF
WHO'S MANIPULATING WHO AND WHO
IS DECEIVING WHOM AND WITH ALL
THOSE TWISTS.
IT KIND OF HAS A SPECTACULAR
ENDING AND I SAW YOU PUT THAT
OVER THERE.
IT'S GOING HOME WITH ME.>>
HERE IS ONE KATIE, THE PRINCESS
BRIDE.
I HAD TO BRING A MODERN
CLASSIC WITH ME.
THIS IS JUST SUCH A GREAT
SUMMERTIME STORY.
I THINK THE MOVIE IS PROBABLY
MY FAVORITE AND ALMOST
EVERYBODY'S FAVORITE MOVIE.
NOT EVERYBODY HAS READ THE BOOK
AND DIDN'T REALIZE IT WAS A
BOOK.
I JUST THINK THAT IT IS JUST AS
FUN AS YOU WOULD EXPECT IT TO
BE AS FUN AS THE MOVIE IS.
IS IT DIFFERENT?
A LITTLE DIFFERENT, SOME
DETAILS YOU DON'T SEE ON THE
SCREEN.
IT'S KIND OF INTERESTING
BECAUSE THE AUTHOR IS JUST SORT
OF SUMMARIZING AN ORIGINAL
STORY.
YOU KIND OF GET A LITTLE BIT OF
DETAIL ABOUT HOW THE MOVIE WAS
MADE FROM THE MAN WHO WROTE IT
BUT INCREDIBLY FUNNY AND
EXCITING.
THE HUMOR IS GREAT.
OKAY.
A GREAT FUN ADVENTURE IN
FAVOR.
I WILL PULL THAT ONE OUT FOR
SURE.
THE LAST ONE IS BY CHRISTOPHER
GELBART SAYS THE UNIVERSE IS IN
YOUR HANDS REALLY QUICKLY.
TELL ME WHAT THAT'S ABOUT.
OUR SUMMER READING PROGRAM
IS THE UNIVERSAL STORY.
I BROUGHT A REALLY COOL
NONFICTION, ALMOST LIKE IT IS
MEANT FOR A STUDENT OF STEPHEN
HAWKING, IT'S JUST INCREDIBLY
FUN AND TANGIBLE EXPLANATIONS
OF HOW THE UNIVERSE WORKS
WITHOUT GETTING LOST IN THE
TERMINOLOGY.
THIS IS SO MUCH FUN.
REALLY SOUNDS LIKE AN
EDUCATIONAL BOOK BUT STILL
ANYBODY CAN READ AND WILL NOT
OVERWHELM YOU.
DEFINITELY FULL OF
IMAGINATION AND VISUALS,
INCREDIBLY FUN.
Joy: GOOD STUFF, LOVE THIS.
YES.
ALL RIGHT KATIE AND HOLLY,
THIS ONE I WILL PUT ON MY
LIBRARY CARD.
IT SOUNDS SO GOOD.
UP NEXT, HOME HEALTHCARE
WORKERS SINGING KARAOKE AT A
COMPANY PICNIC.
SHE BECAME A VIRAL SENSATION
AND NOW IS GOING TO BRING HER
ACT TO BRANSON.
WE WILL SKYPE WITH MISSY
