One day I was reading a newspaper when I noticed a photo of a young woman who looked very much like Linda and whose last name was Wagman—Linda's married name. "There must be thousands of Wagmans, '' I thought, but I still wrote to her.
She called me as soon as she got my letter. "Mrs. Tobin!" she said excitedly, "Linda Evans Wagman is my mother. "
Minutes later, I heard a voice that I knew very much, even after 40 years. We laughed and cried and caught up on each other's lives. Now the empty place in my heart is filled. And there's one thing that Linda and I know for sure: We won't lose each other again!

五、信息摘录
Starting a book club is easy—all you need is to love reading. Here's how to get off to a flying start.
When you set up your book club, the first thing is to get members for your club. They could be friends, family, or those you know through various activities, but they should all love to read. A small group of seven to ten people is usually an ideal size for a book club. Too many can make it difficult to make discussions.
Once you have a group, agree on how often you want to meet—usually clubs meet monthly. Pick a regular date and stick with it. That way, members can easily plan for it. Send out e-mails a week before the meeting to give people a written reminder. Set the length of meeting time. An hour is a good start. Two hours usually does the trick.
Then, you need a good place. Libraries, parks and restaurants are all good meeting places. For many clubs, home is the best place as it's quiet. And noisy public(公共的) places can make talking less relaxing and comfortable. If members bring a plate of food or a bottle of drink, it can help start conversations.
Please don't forget the most important thing—the book! Think about the books your club will enjoy. Fiction Non-fiction Your club can choose books in different ways. You can take turns to recommend books. Let everyone vote on what books to read. Anyway, make sure to keep it light and fun.
After all this has been decided, your book club is ready. Now, it's time to hold the first meeting. Enjoy your reading.
