Everybody loves something.

Some love fluffy cats.
Some love to beat a drum.

Book of the month – December

T. Jefferson Parker – Full Measure is our book of the month for December. Patrick Norris returns to rural California after serving with the US Army in Iraq. Fire has ravaged his home farm and it has all become too much for his parents and brother to manage. The country has changed though, notably after the mass killings of children in schools across the United States, invariably by lone gunmen, and a great tension exists in the people.
