On the same page: 12 years in, this Kaysville book group hasn't read anything that was a 'waste of time'


(Dedicated to Kaitlin Hoelzer.)


the group has read the same book each month for twelve years. they are joined by a large secretarial pool during months that have a Q in them, or sound like they should. their self-editing process has brought praise from conservative political organizations but no free tickets to Saltair. 
in the winter Mrs. Hemmingsocks serves hot apple butter with pickled marmalade, and in the summer Mr. Mapaport brings over his trained sieve to lead a literary deconstruction workshop. they are a fun group, and get even better when meeting under a bridge.
they once talked about vichyssoise for an hour.
