Each meeting featured a preselected pairing of books and this month the ladies were eager to discuss Lady Chatterley’s Lover and Fifty Shades of Grey. Nancy Grillo, the leader of the group, checked her notes. “Let’s start with a controversial question tonight. Does anybody think either of these books should be banned from the library?” “Hell, no,” Jennifer Waters said. “Sexuality is part of nature. We can’t deny our humanity because conservative prudes get nervous when they read a steamy scene.” “Agreed,” Suzy Maurer said, passing around a plate of homemade kush brownies. Caroline Lomax was busily mixing drinks, leveraging years spent working her way through college as a bartender. “Ladies, before we go any further, raise your hand if you think this discussion will improve with fruity cocktails.” “Strong fruity cocktails,” Margo Baker said, raising a hand. Caroline started counting hands, lining up glasses. She hoped she had enough coconut rum because the book club ladies loved booze even more than books.
