Super Sad True Love Story


Our November meeting was at my (Rebecca's) house in Santa Cruz, and I'm so grateful that the group is willing to trek here once a year - thanks guys!

We read Gary Shteyngart's novel, Super Sad True Love Story, which was set in the nearish future and which predicts a social and economic picture that isn't a significant stretch from reality - just enough to be disturbing. Note that our group picture shows a growing number of äppärät readers among us (two iPads, one Kindle, and a phone).

In reading this book, we learned that "looking good is the new smart." Just look at us; we're brilliant!!
