Hey girls, it's KC here!
I just wanted to post a small reflection about the meeting. I chose Serial Killers Club by Jeff Povey. It's about a guy who accidentally kills a serial killer known as the Grandson of Barney and finds a small want ad in his pocket inviting Grandson of Barney to a party hosted by Errol Flynn. Curious our hero, known to us as Dougie, attends in GOB's place and discovers a club for Serial Killers. Who knew such a thing existed? Dougie decides to join the club and pretends to be GOB and along the way meets FBI Agent Wade who tells Dougie he has 2 months to kill the members of the club or Dougie will be put in jail for his murders. As Dougie carries out his task of killing serial killers he falls in love with a new club recruit Betty. He also discovers that the infamous Kentucky Killer has come to town and Agent Wade is obsessed with tracking down and getting KK. Dougie later discovers that KK was none other than his beloved Betty, who only pretended to like him so she could kill him. Betty kills Agent Wade and Dougie kills Betty. The book ends with Dougie telling us he uses Agent Wade's car and badge and is continuing his vigilante search for serial killers.
The reason I chose this book was that I thought it was very interesting and it gives a bit of insight on what goes on in a serial killers mind. I also liked it because the main character is an idiot and still manages to do something smart. In the meeting we talked about whether or not we would follow in Dougie's example and impersonate a serial killer. We also discussed how there was a bit of ambiguity in who the Kentucky Killer was and why the serial killers were so arrogant with their own safety until the end of the book.
We also surprised Misty with an early birthday cake and card! The look on her face was priceless! We also did an awards ceremony. As is detailed in the posts below. All in all I think the meeting went well and had fun. I hope you all agree and have a good weekend!
Much Love,
KC
Very good, thanks!
