    I'm going to miss November too��. I know you ask about books for the following year so I will recommend Hillbilly Elegy, by JD Vance. Also reading Life Class by Diana Athill. Too long for group, but individual books are manageable.

    Hi Jane! We will miss you at the November discussion! Thanks for checking in and for the book suggestions! Hillbilly Elegy is a very likely candidate at this point.
