Book Club Wednesday, March 5, 1:45 PM Life, Loss and Puffins Catherine Ryan Hyde This unique novel focuses on two teens who have trouble making friends, and through the story, discover the priceless gift of finding someone in the world to talk with. The 13-year-old character Ru Evans, in the reviewer's words is "freakishly smart." She's a whiz at geometry, has an extraordinary memory, and is about to enter college. Boarding at a house near campus, she meets 17-year-old Gabriel and they form a sibling-like friendship. Ru's mother dies and believing that she'll have to live with her obstreperous aunt, she decides to make a road trip with Gabriel from California to Canada, where she can fulfill her ultimate goal to see Atlantic puffins in the wild. Through the trip, she discovers the joys of friendship and family, dark skies, and the aurora borealis. She's able to broaden her horizons, find a liberating freedom, and, through her human friendship and experiences with the puffins, to face a happier life, and go from being a very smart person to just a person Contacts: Barbara Barry babs206@gmail.com Diane Ginsberg ginsey1@verizon.net |
