Hey there. I'm hoping this book club will fill a gap that's missing in the local book club scene. I really enjoy reading books that are engaging and leave me feeling like I've learned something.

I decided to start up a book club in Shirlington because it seemed like the others offered were in faraway lands... like DC and Reston. I enjoy visiting both of these places, but I don't enjoy trying to get there after work or on a weekend. After lamenting over the book club options it finally occurred to me - why do I start one in Shirlington so I could actually walk there and hopefully get to meet people in my own little neighborhood? Hence the beginning of the Shirlington Book Club (I'm ope …

This is a group for women over 40 who are interested in meeting and discussing a book of the month over a cup of coffee, glass of wine or a beer. This is a time for us to have a short break from our husbands, kids, pets, and all responsibilities--some "me" time to have enjoyable discussions about the book we've read as a group. I'm more interested in meeting out, but if others prefer, we can also meet at each others' homes (but that's more work!).

Let's get together over coffee and chat about the novels of Susan Howatch, which have been described as follows: In all of these novels there is a meshing of Christianity and psychology, which Howatch uses as a tool to perhaps reach those “who say and think that religion is outdated rubbish.” If you talk to these people in the language of psychology, she says, “then you can say, this is what Christianity is saying. Learn the language." You don't need to be a Christian to enjoy these novels. Ther …
