X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p style="text-align: center\;">[This book cl
 ub meets every second Tuesday of the month at 7 pm]</p>\n<p>Join us online
  to discuss <strong><em>The Book of Two Ways</em> by Jodi Picoult:</strong
 ></p>\n<p style="padding-left: 30px\; text-align: justify\;"><em>"Everythi
 ng changes in a single moment for Dawn Edelstein. She&rsquo\;s on a plane 
 when the flight attendant makes an announcement: Prepare for a crash landi
 ng. She braces herself as thoughts flash through her mind. The shocking th
 ing is\, the thoughts are not of her husband but of a man she last saw fif
 teen years ago: Wyatt Armstrong.</em></p>\n<p style="padding-left: 30px\; 
 text-align: justify\;"><em>Dawn\, miraculously\, survives the crash\, but 
 so do all the doubts that have suddenly been raised. She has led a good li
 fe. Back in Boston\, there is her husband\, Brian\, their beloved daughter
 \, and her work as a death doula\, in which she helps ease the transition 
 between life and death for her clients.</em></p>\n<p style="padding-left: 
 30px\; text-align: justify\;"><em>But somewhere in Egypt is Wyatt Armstron
 g\, who works as an archaeologist unearthing ancient burial sites\, a care
 er Dawn once studied for but was forced to abandon when life suddenly inte
 rvened. And now\, when it seems that fate is offering her second chances\,
  she is not as sure of the choice she once made.</em></p>\n<p style="paddi
 ng-left: 30px\; text-align: justify\;"><em>After the crash landing\, the a
 irline ensures that the survivors are seen by a doctor\, then offers trans
 portation to wherever they want to go. The obvious&nbsp\;destination is to
  fly home\,&nbsp\;but she could take another path:&nbsp\;return to the arc
 haeological site she left years before\, reconnect with Wyatt and their un
 resolved history\, and maybe even complete her research on The Book of Two
  Ways&mdash\;the first known map of the afterlife.</em></p>\n<p style="pad
 ding-left: 30px\; text-align: justify\;"><em>As the story unfolds\, Dawn&r
 squo\;s two possible futures unspool side by side\, as do the secrets and 
 doubts long buried with them. Dawn must confront the questions she&rsquo\;
 s never truly asked: What does a life well lived look like? When we leave 
 this earth\, what do we leave behind? Do we make choices . . . or do our c
 hoices make us? And who would you be if you hadn&rsquo\;t turned out to be
  the person you are right now?"&nbsp\;</em></p>\n<p style="text-align: cen
