(This is Mia R.) For this BC we read "Same Kind of Different As Me" by Ron Hall and Denver Moore. http://www.samekindofdifferentasme.com/ On the whole I think we all liked it. Our conversation about it led us to how we feel about hand outs to the homeless and homelessness in general. Some of us feel ok about giving handouts without strings, some of us feel we have a responsibility to give the person a "foothold" to better their life. We discussed the religious aspect of the book and how it contributed to our feelings about the characters. We were all touched by the emotional connection these two men felt towards each other at the end of the book. For some reason - I can't remember much other conversation about the book - help me out here girls!
Next on the agenda, picked by Amber D: "Time of My Life" by Alison Winn Scotch. http://allisonwinnscotch.blogspot.com/
We talked about meeting at Dylon's next time on October 10 for a bon fire BC! More to come on that.
Highlights from the night:
"You wouldn't care as much about what other people thought of you if you realized how seldom they do."
"You're the cutest whore I've ever seen without sores!"
"Her two favorite things in the world are Mass and Convertables."
A polite little squeek when our group pic was taken. :)
Thanks Amber for an awesome night, great food! Can't wait until next time girls!
