Julie announced that the March book will be "Truth and Beauty: A Friendship" by Ann Patchett. She suggests that we also read "Autobiography of a Face" by Lucy Greely, which is a companion book of sorts.
We'll be meeting at Eleanor's house (I'm sure her daughter will tell her we nominated her before we actually meet) at 6:30 p.m. on March 21, 2008.
