I'm excited to say that my book club has chosen its (possibly first ever) book about Mali for our October meeting. I immediately went to the PS library and got Monique and the Mango Rains, only to discover that it was donated by none other than our senior San Antonio correspondent, Julia de la Torre. Thanks, Julia!
I'm all of 37 pages in and so far am having all of the predictable reactions of being shocked, appalled, and worried about the life of a midwife in rural Mali (as written by a Peace Corps volunteer). Has anyone else read the book? I'd love to discuss it with you.

I don't know that book, Deb, but it sounds intriguing(and I like the title). Perhaps we can recommend it to our book group! Keep me posted.
