Registration is closed
The Altrusa Wine & Chocolate Literary Society meets on the 4th Monday of each month.
The Committee reviewed all of the wonderful books that have been recommended by members. It was difficult to narrow down the list but they have found a fantastic variety for your reading pleasure in 2012.  They made an effort to include classics, new books, mysteries, non-fiction, and just plain fun reads.
Join us for a fun evening of Friendship, Wine, Chocolate, and Literature.
2012 Reading List:

January - Gifts of War - Mackenzie Ford

February - To Kill a Mockingbird – Harper Lee

March - Major Pettigrew’s Last Stand – Helen Simonson

April - Rescuing Sprite-A Dog Lover's Story of Joy and Anguish – Mark Levin

The April selection is Rescuing Sprite-A Dog Lover's Story of Joy and Anguish by Mark Levin. Please join us as Lois Ferrara leads the discussion of this charming book about the unconditional love that exists between dogs and their families. Although Mark Levin is known as a constitutional lawyer and a nationally syndicated broadcaster, he is, first and foremost, a dog lover. In 1998, he and his family welcomed a half-Border Collie/half-Cocker Spaniel they named Pepsi into their lives. Six years later, his wife and son persuaded him to adopt a dog from the local shelter, a Spaniel mix. It turned out he was older than originally thought, and he was the most beautiful dog they'd ever seen. They named him Sprite. Their lives would never be the same.

June – The Street Sweeper – Elliot Perlman

August Tin Roof Blowdown – James Lee Burke
