Gone Girl
by Gillian Flynn
Date: TBA
Susan’s House
The Spelling Bee is scheduled for January 23, 2013 at Allen School.
Snow Date is January 30, 2013.
We have eliminated the Mock Bee
Marriage can be a real killer.
One of the most critically acclaimed suspense
writers of our time, New York Times
bestseller Gillian Flynn takes that statement
to its darkest place in this unputdownable
masterpiece about a marriage gone terribly,
terribly wrong. The Chicago Tribune
proclaimed that her work “draws you in and
keeps you reading with the force of a pure
but nasty addiction.” Gone Girl’s toxic mix of
sharp-edged wit and deliciously chilling prose
creates a nerve-fraying thriller that
confounds you at every turn.

Fall In Love with Medford
In conjunction with Medford Works!, Woman’s Club will
participate in the Fall In Love with Medford event at
Braddock’s Tavern on Sunday, February 10th 2013 from 3pm to 5pm
The event is meant to showcase area businesses with a look toward
Valentine’s Day giving. The bulk of the planning has been
completed and we are asking Woman’s Club ladies to simply sell
tickets. Ticket prices are $20 and include beverages and
hors d’ouevres. There will be 75 tickets available and we ask each
of you to sell as many as you can!
