Summer Reading and viewing


The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel

Hi All!  Molly came across tow interesting books on India that would make great summer reading. The two books on India that Molly recommends are Behind the Beautiful Forevers by Katherine Boo and Shantaram by Gregory David Roberts.  Both books are available at your public library.  The one by Katherine Boo comes on CD which would be great for listening if you are taking any long drives!


Also, if you haven yet see this movie,

Molly says it s a wonderful movie.  Put it on your "to see" list for summer fun! I'll post the 

Google review below.

The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel

‎1hr 58min‎‎ - Rated PG-13‎‎ - Comedy/Drama‎
Director: John Madden - Cast: Bill Nighy, Maggie Smith, Judi Dench, Tom Wilkinson, Dev Patel - : Rated 3.7 out of 5.0
A group of British retirees decide to "outsource" their retirement to less expensive and seemingly exotic India. Enticed by advertisements for the newly restored Marigold Hotel and bolstered with visions of a life of leisure, they arrive to find the palace a shell of its former self. Though the new environment is less luxurious than imagined, they are forever transformed by their shared experiences, discovering that life and love can begin again when you let go of the past.
