I am now rather estranged from all groups and clubs and classes--
But Nine Parts of Desire was in group run out of a local bookstore
and Horse, I saw on the notice board--was one read by group based in our building about 2 years ago.
But I am my own "club" or "Group."
I don't like the dominant personalities who run groups--
For the same reason I don't like guided tours in museums
I like to wander around on my own.
I like to form my own thoughts and impressions--not so sure I will like some books.
Sometimes I buy them based on samples--then don't finish reading them.
My friend used to toss books she didn't like across the room.
The books I like I keep lined up beside my bed.
Maybe best to die in my own bed.
