The Parker UCC Book Club will be happening again in April and is open to everyone. The next book we are reading is actually a series of letters which are described below. You can get your own copy or I will have copies of the book in March for all those who wish to read it.
Please join us for discussion (even if you don’t read the book, as it usually inspires us to read it), fellowship and dessert!

The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society
by Mary Ann Shaffer & Annie Barrows
It's January, 1946, and London is emerging from the shadow of World War II. Author Juliet Ashton is having a terrible time finding inspiration for her next book when she gets a letter from Dawsey Adams from Guernsey, a British island that had been occupied by the Nazis. He finds her address in a used Charles Lamb volume and wonders if she might be able to help him learn more about the author. As Juliet and Dawsey exchange letters, she learns about the Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society, a unique book club formed on the spur-of-the-moment, as an alibi to protect its members from arrest by the Germans. Captivated, Juliet sets sail for Guernsey, and what she finds there will change her life forever.
