Behind Closed Doors November Book Discussion


Image result for behind closed doors

On November 2nd 2017 I had 9 individuals show up for my Better Than Therapy Book Discussion.  Its been a couple of months since I've had that many show up so it was a pleasant surprise.

During my pumpkin carving program a week early, some of my attendees excitedly told me they loved the book. I had to quickly stop them because I wanted to make sure they had enough to talk about DURING book group. With past experience, if a book is "very good" it usually made for a very quick discussion.

I set up my refreshments and watched them trickle in. And for an hour, we discussed, oh boy, did we discuss. There was just so much to cover in the book.

Issues of abuse, anger, betrayal, devotion, we covered it all. We dug deep, asking questions such as "what would you do if you knew someone in a similar situation". We dug deeper, and deeper. We want to be the good person, but how far are we willing to push.

Overall, one of the best discussions we've had!


Next month, we will be discussing 'Where the Mountain Meets the Moon' by Grace Lin.
