    Let Me Catch You

    by Zane Menzy

    When: 3 PM on the last Wednesday of each month

    Where: We meet via Zoom.  Login information will be included in your registration confirmation email.

    About the book: From the Amazon description...

    Fresh from university, Stephen Davis has returned to the family farm to inherit a responsibility that was never meant to be his. Feeling bored and trapped, the pretentious farm boy starts hanging out with Shaun Munro, an unpopular try-hard from the town's most dysfunctional family. What starts as an unlikely friendship slowly evolves into a passionate romance that takes Stephen completely by surprise. Sadly, their summer of love comes to a tragic end and Stephen's life is changed forever.

    Twenty years later, Inver Murray has come home to Clifton to bury the father he barely knew. Despite his reluctance to be back in town, he does enjoy the chance to stay and reconnect with Stephen, his childhood neighbour. However, interactions with Stephen soon turn awkward, and strange happenings in the night begin to rattle Inver who is unaware that his handsome host intends to make him pay for the sins of his dead father.

    Set along the wild coast of New Zealand, Let Me Catch You is a haunting love story that brings two broken souls together as they unearth the truth about what happened all those years ago when Shaun Munro learned "the secret."

    August Book Selection

    The Men from the Boys: A Novel

    by  William J. Mann

    When: 3 PM on the last Wednesday of each month

    Where: We meet via Zoom.  Login information will be included in your registration confirmation email.

    About the book: From the Amazon description...

    This classic novel by bestselling author William J. Mann features a gay man trying to come to terms with sex, friendship, aging, and falling—and staying—in love

    This stunning slice of gay life at the turn of the millennium introduces thirtysomething Jeff O’Brien. After six years, his lover, Lloyd, has just announced that the passion between them has died. Terrified of ending up alone, Jeff turns his eye toward other men. But the anonymous, impersonal encounters leave him feeling sordid and used. In search of love during this “last summer in which I am to be young,” he finds romance with a beautiful houseboy named Eduardo. At twenty-two, Eduardo is the same age Jeff was when he began a relationship with the older David Javitz, a leading activist now gravely ill with AIDS. But David became more than a lover to Jeff, who wasn’t yet out of the closet. He was his mentor and cherished friend.

    Narrated by Jeff, who’s caught between the baby boomers and generation X, the novel shuttles between summers in Provincetown and winters in Boston. The Men from the Boys is about the illusive nature of love and desire—“the magic that happens across a dance floor,” leaving you “forever young.”
