Joy For Beginners

Joy for Beginners has Summer Read written all over it. Six friends come together to rejoice in their friend Kate's recovery from cancer. At the gathering, Kate offers a challenge: She will attempt to do something which has always frightened her, but her friends must also take on a task that frightens them, a task she will assign.

I delighted in this book. It combined elements that I love to find in books: happiness, friendship, challenges, facing-your-fears. Great summer read.
