About The Event
Facilitated by Jackie Schultz. Our bookclub choice this fall is The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake by Aimee Bender:
On the eve of her ninth birthday, unassuming Rose Edelstein bites into her
mother's homemade lemon-chocolate cake and discovers she has a magical
gift: she can taste her mother’s emotions in the slice. To her horror, she finds
that her cheerful mother tastes of despair. Soon, she’s privy to the secret
knowledge that most families keep hidden: her father’s detachment, her
mother’s transgression, her brother’s increasing retreat from the world.
But there are some family secrets that even her cursed taste buds
can’t discern.
