November 2023 Spotlight: The RaRa Sisters Book Club

 

Our November 2023 Spotlight is celebrating 23 years as a book club!

The RaRa Sisters Book Club is the November 2023 Spotlight Group

 

The RaRa (Readers Anonymous) Sisters Book Club was created in 2000. The picture is from our Roaring 20s party that celebrated our 20 years together. It’s crazy to believe that we have been together for 23 years! We’ve had many adventures together and have read nearly 150 books. Together, we have supported one another through many of life’s events: some happy, some scary, and some tragic, but we’re always there for one another.

The Bookies have chosen to remain small in number, consisting of family and friends. We meet each month and take turns being the hostess, usually in our home, although during COVID, we continued to meet via Zoom.
