july 30 | tues | 10:30 am | activities building last tuesday book club
Meet Eleanor Oliphant : She struggles with appropriate social skills and tends to say exactly what she ’ s thinking . Nothing is missing in her carefully timetabled life of avoiding social interactions , where weekends are punctuated by frozen pizza , vodka , and phone chats with Mummy .
But everything changes when Eleanor meets Raymond , the bumbling and deeply unhygienic IT guy from her office and she and Raymond together save Sammy , an elderly gentleman who has fallen on the sidewalk .
Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine is the smart , warm , and uplifting story of an out-ofthe-ordinary heroine whose deadpan weirdness and unconscious wit make for an irresistible journey as she realizes . . . The only way to survive is to open your heart .
Liz Murphy is our leader this month . She will lead us to an uplifting discussion of this novel and its theme .
