(Thurs. March 24, 2011) Cyrus Webb Leads Discussion of "A Time To Kill" by John Grisham


On Thursday, March 24, 2011, Conversations Book Club President Cyrus Webb will lead a discussion of the book "A Time To Kill" by bestselling author and Mississippi native John Grisham. This is part of the "Best of Mississippi 2011" roster.

"The Best of Mississippi Book Club is our way of celebrating the state's literary stars as well as those that are on the rise," says Webb of Brandon, MS. "I think the selections are varied enough that Mississippians of all ages and interests will find something they can enjoy and share." Webb also hopes that this will be yet another way that reading can be encouraged throughout the state since it is still has one of the highest illiteracy rates in the country.

The book club meets every fourth Thursday at Appetizers Restaurant (3000 Hwy 80 E) at 6p.m. each month for a 90 min. discussion about that month's selection. Webb will lead the conversation, and the book club is free and open to anyone who would like to attend and/or participate.

"Whether you just love the book or want to sit in on the discussion, everyone is welcome," Webb says.
