So, last night I stayed up late finishing Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet for book club. If you haven't read it, you should. It was good. Stay up late to finish it good. I've never been to a book club, so I'm curious about the whole thing, but it got me thinking about several good books I've read this year:
The Glassblower of Murano
The Mistress of the Art of Death
Same Kind of Different as Me
The Hunger Games
The Forgotten Garden
While My Sister Sleeps
The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Society
These Is My Words
The Wednesday Wars
A Single Thread
I love to read. Love it. I love to escape into a world with no stress, no house to clean, no worries at all. What about you? Are a book lover? Read anything good lately?

Oh too many to even remember! I am in the middle of the sequel to These is My Words and it is just as good as the first!
ReplyDeleteI also read The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Society this year. It was fantastic. I just finished Her Fearful Symmetry by the author who wrote The Time Traveler's Wife. It was a little weird, but I couldn't put it down at the end.
ReplyDeleteBook clubs are fun, as long as you like the books that everyone picks. I hope you enjoy it.
OHHHHHhhhh .... so wonderful to read this! It's inspired me to find a local friend who reads -- I miss my CO bookclub. And don't EVEN get me started on the libraries here??? AAAH!!! I seriously thought I would DIE when I went to RS meeting and person after person introduced themselves by saying something like, "I *love* to read. Ok, actually Twilight is the first book I've ever read. BUT I've read the series over and over! And I *love* the books. In fact, I'm writing my own book now."
ReplyDeleteAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! I've entered an alternate universe!!!!
Note to self: must find or START a bookclub!
