Whoever is going to be the host at the next month’s session will bring 3-4 books that he is suggesting for us to read. Then the whole group picks one of them.

All the sudden I miss the warmness of the familiar faces even more, and would love to connect with Taiwanese girls/ladies who have left home for whatever reason and now are starting a new chapter of life in an exciting …
