The next SSEFC Women's Book Club will be at Ring Mountain Café in Eagan at 7 pm on Thursday, March 31. Join us as we discuss All the Tea in China by Jane Orcutt. The good, young Englishwoman knows that her destiny depends upon a good marriage match. But Isabella Goodrich is not your typical good, young Englishwoman. After an encounter with those less fortunate than she, witty and fun-loving Isabella makes a shocking decision. Against everyone's advice and wishes, she is going to become a missionary in the Far East. Fighting against cultural expectations, common sense, and a mentor who is not as he seems, Isabella leaves her predictable Oxford life behind and sets sail to a new world fraught with danger. Can she trust the mysterious missionary Phineas Snowe? Or will her adventure end before it even begins? This rollicking regency will delight readers who like high adventure, twisting plots, and a fun bit of romance.Future Book Club meetings will be May 12 when we will discuss our Easter selection Three Days by Melody Carlson and June 16 when local author Julie Klassen will join us in a discussion of her book Girl in the Gatehouse. Please join us for one or more of the meetings and invite a friend! If you have any questions, email bookclub@ssefc.org.
