On Sept 13, 2015, we had the Year 7 Launch Party! It was intense. Year 7 got off to a raucous start, friends. It went down in three parts.
Part 1: Shelley+Wilbur= love
Part 2: tiny book discussion
Part 3: Year 7's line-up
Energy remained high all night. Which was necessary to keep Renee in check (she kept sidetracking us with too much talk about December and rowing, but she also fed us well on her cozy clubhouse/porch).
Some other important notes:
We have a new member- welcome Traci (Horton will determine in the upcoming months whether or not you are a fully-evolved human). We informally ruled against any fantasy football activity in book club, but talk of Fantasy Book Club remains (sorry Jodes). Beth is a catalyst, Katie is our franchise, my boobs are frighteningly large, but most importantly… Shelley is in love with a biker named Wilbur. And if you love love like I do, make sure you read the book we sort-of discussed last night-Eleanor and Park.
Anything else I should've bookmarked?
It took outbursts and heated discussions, but here is our Year 7 line-up. I'll also get it up on Facebook.
So excited! So much fun. FFBC just might be the love of my life. Or should I call it my Wilbur?
Much love,
Amy
