Discussion: Although May's selection happened to be our 3rd consecutive murder mystery, ACsBC enjoyed the book! Kim decided to "theme" our meal by serving a hot, delicious breakfast. Eggs, hashbrowns, donuts, fruit, bagels.....who doesn't love breakfast for dinner!?!?!?!?! Kim came up with this idea based on Maggie Quinn, one of the main characters, who never slept at night. Only in the day!
Not only did Kim serve a great meal, but she surprised the book club......the author, Dianne Gallagher, who resides in Frankfort, IL, made a special appearance and joined our discussion! The doorbell rang after dinner...or should I say breakfast?! And we were wondering who was crashing ACsBC... Kim introduced her and we all almost fell off our chairs!!! We absolutely loved having an author join us. She answered many of our questions and we were delighted she took the time out of her busy schedule. This book will eventually be a part of a trilogy. Many of us are excited to read on, and learn what will become of Maggie Quinn! We'd also like to add, if you are involved in a book club, Dianne Gallagher would definitely make a surprise appearance!
BCDP: Kim put our names in a hat and Tracy was picked! She won a Yankee Candle and dark chocolate! Yum! Tracy is responsible for the dessert in June, along with hosting. Happy Reading!
Recommendation: We all recommend Too Dark to Sleep and are looking forward to this new author's future books!
