Book Club

A couple of friends/coworkers started a book club!  Our first book club meeting will be next week, and then monthly after that.  On book club days, I'll post a little review about the book we read and what we're reading next.  The first book we read and will discuss next week is Nineteen Minutes.  We also just made our list for the year, posted below.  If you have read any of the books on the list and know they are no good, let us know before we tackle them!  We tried to include some classics, as well as more recent fiction.  We each came up with three suggestions and drew the random order of the books.  Here ya go!

  1. 1984 - George Orwell
  2. The Weight of Silence - Heather Gudenkauf
  3. Undressing the Moon - Tammy Greenwood
  4. True Love (and Other Lies) - Whitney Gaskell
  5. The Shack - William P Young
  6. A Child Called "It" - Dave Pelzer
  7. Middlesex - Jeffrey Eugenides
  8. Gods in Alabama - Joshilyn Jackson
  9. Oogy - Larry Levin
  10. Catcher and the Rye - J.D. Salinger
  11. One Thousand White Women - Jim Fergus
  12. To Kill a Mockingbird - Harper Lee
