Virtual or Real?
 
I am already in 2 book clubs in TV, not sure I could handle any more, but maybe. . . Anyone ever been involved in an online book club?

The Night Circus - a very good read. Well written, imaginative, and mesmerizing. Read the dust cover before buying but at least look at it.

Book Club
 
I'm seasonal too Barefoot. Let's do it anyway.
Shall we name some books we'd like to read or have read and start a plan?
I met a woman yesterday at Toning Circuit in Mulberry who wants to start a club too. That's already 4 or 5 of us. Makes a club in my book....get it?..... book...

Any James Patterson book. If you like murder mysteries you can't go wrong. They make my heart beat fast when I read them. Suspenseful.

I find myself in 2 book groups (how did that happen?) so I'm reading lots that I would not necessarily pick on my own.
Oprah recommended this book for her book club.

11/22/63 by Stephen King - what if Kennedy had lived? Not the usual King book at all - fascinating read that you don't want to end.

Just finished "The Girl With The Dragon Tatoo", "The Girl Who Played with Fire", "The Girl Who Kicked The Hornets Nest" for the second time. Great books. The first was very hard to get into until the first 100 pages were history. Then the rest was a great read. The movies (Swedish version) were good. The GWTDT was also a good American movie but only if you read the book. I could see it was hard to follow if the book was not read.

John Grishim - The Litigators
 
Just finished it. Couldn't wait to find out what happened at the end. Good story.

The Scottish Prisoner by Diana Gabaldon.

Just finished The Night Circus and The Hunger Games. Liked them both.

Just finished Diedrich Bonnehoefer Pastor,Spy. It was a great read about life in Pre World War 2 Germany and the war years. This book highlighted what happened to the church and its pastors including Bonnhoefer under Hitler.

book club
 
Count me in if you start a book club. We'll arrive Feb 1 to take possession of our sens... er, new house.

I heard there's a great new library down by the new sections somewhere.

book club
 
Would also be interested in joining a book club. Already belong to Bookworms (membership is closed now...too many members). I'd like to belong to two clubs. Send me a private message if you are starting a club or know of another one I could join. Thanks.
