This month's selection was recommended by my mom, Jane.  We both read it a few months ago, and thought it was an excellent book.  Please join us in reading What We Keep by Elizabeth Berg. 
 

The author's writing style is vivid and comfortable and familiar.  Here's an excerpt:

"It can hurt you, remembering--the shock of reentry, the mild disorientation, the inevitable sadness that accompanies a true vision of the past. Still, right now, staring out the window at the land far below me, realizing I have no idea where I am, I want nothing more than to do absolutely that. I want to go back to the time when I started to lose my mother, and search for clues as to why and how. I suppose it's about time. I lean my seat back. Close my eyes. Begin."

This month's wine pairing is one of my personal favorites - Louis Jadot Pouilly Fuisse.  It certainly is not available in a box, but is a delicious full-bodied white wine.  The first time I had this wine was over my 26th birthday with my mom while we were in Paris.  It's the wine I choose for very special occasions.  It's the wine I keep.
