Anyone interested in having a book club at the family reunion?
Some suggestions from googling "good book club books":
-The Secret Life of Bees
-Kite Runner
-The Time Traveler's Wife (I heard some good things about this one)
-The Story of Edgar Sawtelle (this is what Oprah's book club is reading0

I haven't read any of the books, but I have seen the movies of Bees and Kite Runner. Aunt Linda read Kite Runner and said she had a difficult time reading some of the parts. I haven't heard of the last two books. So I would vote for Bees or either of the last two.
ReplyDeleteAlong the Gettysburg/Civil War theme, we suggest "The Killer Angels" by Michael Shaara. If you've already that (it is a historical novel) there is also a prequel AND a sequel.
ReplyDeleteI've read Kite Runner and would rather not use it for our book club.
Given my LOST experience lately, I think I might enjoy the Time Traveler's Wife.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea Kristen!!
I read Time Traveler's Wife - it has some inappropriate things in it, so I wouldn't recommend it. I've also read the first two, but not the last.I would be fine with either of those.
ReplyDeleteI meant, any of the other three
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of a Civil War or Abe Lincoln focused book.
ReplyDeleteFunny in Farsi is another idea (Michelle just read it).
