Our July book has been selected, thanks to our member LO!  Fortunately for LO, many of us are excited to read the book.  It's been sitting on my bookshelf for many months.  I also know BRK has picked up his copy, so if you haven't picked yours up yet, now is the time to do it!

Kitchen Confidential: Adventures in the culinary underbelly is an autobiographical book with crazy tales from the incredible life of famous chef and explorer Anthony Bourdain.  He is widely recognized in the culinary industry with his hands in haute cuisine, authoring books, and travel/traveling shows on tv.  He is well known for his use of profanity and disdain for commercialized cooking, so readers beware!

There was no book club meeting for the last book, although I am still up for discussing it if anybody wants to do that with me!  This month, you can look forward to the following items:

1. More polls and discussion questions - these are NEVER mandatory!
2. Fun facts about Anthony Bourdain - start your own exploration by viewing his TV shows here!
3. Quotes from Anthony Bourdain
4. Culinary lifestyle tidbits, courtesy of my friends in the culinary world
5. More...?? (Suggestions are always welcome!)

I have been a big fan of Anthony Bourdain for many years.  I hope you all enjoy this book!
 
Hi all!

The June book has been announced!  We will be reading The Family Fang by Kevin Wilson.  This book is quirky, humorous, contemporary fiction related to family dynamics and passion for art.  You can visit our Book List to find the book at your local library or purchase the book.  Since this is our first book in the book club, things may be shaky and uncertain - don't panic!  Check back here or give JD a call if you feel lost!

Note: All announcements will be posted in this color to be distinguished from the discussion posts.

Things to do in the month of June:
1. Read The Family Fang!
2. Visit the Discussions Page every week to take a poll and post your thoughts of the book so far!
3. Keep an eye out on this site, Facebook, or email for the Book Club meeting date!
4. Vote here if you want input on what we read!

Love,
The Be Book Club
