In this time of mash-ups, what could be better for Valentine’s Day than a zombie black romantic comedy?  We’ll be reading Breathers by S.G. Browne, a book about one man’s transition to the undead and how he finds love in the afterlife.  Bound to make you feel better about your love life, no matter what state it’s in.  

For our February meeting, we’re very pleased to feature the new novel Spirit Lens from Carol Berg, an award-winning Fort Collins science fiction author.  Carol Berg will be here at our book club meeting to discuss and sign her work.  Spirit Lens takes place in a civilization on the edge of the Age of Reason.  It follows a young nobleman who becomes entangled in political and magical intrigue.  

Join us on February 13 at noon to meet Sandi Ault and get your copy of Wild Penance, her fourth book in the Jamaica Wild mystery series.  If you enjoy the outdoors, the mysticism of Indian cultures, along with breakneck adventure, the WILD series might just get your heart racing.

This month we will be discussing Red Glass, an award-winning novel by Laura Resau, a Fort Collins author.  This novel is marketed as a teen book, but anyone can relate to its themes of identity, self-confidence, and growth.  Teenage Sophie travels to Mexico to help her foster brother visit his family one last time.  Along the way, she learns to trust herself and to reach out in love.  Resau touches on the plight of illegal immigrants in an empathic way and also gives a fascinating glimpse into Mexican culture.
