For our November pick we chose Alive by Piers Paul Read. In this true-life adventure, a team of rugby players survive a plane crash deep in the desolate, snow-covered Andes Mountains, where they must overcome incredible odds to stay alive.
This is a book from Hoopla. You can also get in touch with me at ayosco@lapl.org for a physical copy of the selected book, while supplies last, if you prefer.
Access the copy via Hoopla (https://www.hoopladigital.com/title/11694584). If you don’t already have a Hoopla account you will need to create one. Go to https://www.hoopladigital.com/ and select “get started today.” Enter email and make up a password. You will be prompted to select a library, look for Los Angeles Public Library. You will then need to supply your library card number.
The plan is for everyone to obtain a copy and spend the first couple of weeks of November reading. I will begin posting questions to discuss on the group’s web bulletin board space on November 18 and will add a new question each day until November 28 (our regular meeting day). I encourage members to log on each day to answer the day’s question as well as review, and respond to, the answers other members provided for the previous days questions. We will then meet via video-conference on November 28 at 3:00.
If you’re not already a member of our web bulletin board space email me at ayosco@lapl.org. I will send you the details you need to know to sign yourself up.
Make a note: if you plan to join the video-conference you’ll need to send an email to ayosco@lapl.org so I can get the conference link to you.
