Kitty had liked the previous book clubs she'd attended (though unfortunately there hadn't been one last year), and for the sake of politeness and old times she was attending. Yet she was in a black mood and not entirely sure it was a good idea.

"Hello Professors," she said, smiling thinly (which was the best she could do under the rotten circumstances) at both of them before sitting down without glancing at anyone else. Out of the corner of her eye she noticed Rooney, Jessa, and Skylar were all here. Okay. Ha. Ha. Ha.

What book would they be talking about? The wardrobe reminded her of the Lion, the Witch & the Wardrobe.

But that probably wasn't it.
