Last Night in Twisted River: A Novel by John Irving Book Review

Ghetto Girl Book Club – Girl, Interrupted
About a month ago I decided to start an in-home and online joint book club,  My first monthly Ghetto Girl Book Club will be held tonight – Tuesday November 10, 2009 from 7-9 pm.  If you can’t join us at my house, then at least join me online.  You’ll be missing out on my famous ranch, cheese and bacon dip, but at least you can live vicariously through the photos I’ll post later, as I will be updating this blog post live throughout the day and evening up until tomorrow.
