Book Club Recommendations
I have been in a book club since August 2001. I love our group and through the years we have morphed from reviewing in restaurants, to home reviews with themed foods to the books, to dress up events that make me THRILLED to talk about my awesome book club any day … any time!
What you will find here is a list of what I think were the best of the best book club reads. Some have ideas attached to them, food to serve, extras we did during the review. Not all of them do but I would be happy to share any ideas to go with a book you are reading for book club to jazz up the review a bit.
I love the little extras we put into the reviews. They have for us, strengthened out group and made up a book club of 18 strong that I adore!

I would love to – thank you for the invite
following up on budgetbooksandbeauty, I recently read Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi, and wrote a review (short, but nevertheless a review) over here: http://lustforstories.blogspot.ca/2012/07/shatter-me-by-tahereh-mafi.html
I’m wondering if I could get some feedback on my review so I know how I can do better, but if it’s not possible, then it’s alright; you probably have tons of other request to finish.
Thank you~
have you considered “The Way of the Bull” by Leo Buscaglia? How about “The Christmas Train” by David Baldacci? Let me know what you thinnk of them… Cheers!
