The Bermuda triangle

Book club this week we discussed Maureen Johnson's young adult novel, The Bermudez Triangle . As happens sometimes, discussion is shorter when the group is unanimous in liking the novel. It was a well-written easy read focussed on the friendship between three high-school aged girls. We liked it! We noted the lack of tragedy, suicide and general malaise that befalls so many lesbian stories. Speaking of malaise, next month we read Jeanette Winterson's memoir, Why Be Happy When You Could Be Normal . One quick note for book club members, paperback copies will be available at Audrey's bookstore next week. If you can't wait, one member tells me there are several hardcovers available at bookstores throughout the city, including e-versions.
