For the month of May we are reading American Dirt by Jeanine Cummins. Lydia, her son and journalist husband live in Acapulco. While cracks are beginning to show on the city because of cartel activity, Lydia’s life is fairly comfortable. But after her husband’s tell-all profile of the newest drug lord is published, none of their lives will ever be the same. Forced to flee, Lydia and her son find themselves joining countless people trying to reach the U.S.  Lydia sees everyone running from something but what are they running towards?

We always welcome new members!  Join every 4th Thursday of the month or only on occasion.  Food and drink can be purchased at the restaurant.  There’s always good fellowship. No RSVP needed, but feel free to contact Sue at sue.siewert55@gmail.com or 414-813-0091.
