Read any good books lately?
I've always gotten the best book club recommendations from Nesties (Tender Bar, Glass Castle, Undress Me in the Temple of Heaven), so thought I check here again. Read any good books lately?
Thanks!
Re: Read any good books lately?
The 19th Wife (the historical fiction one) by David Ebershoff might be a good book club book. It would definitely be a conversation starter.
For a recent personal fav that I enjoyed was Garden Spells by Sarah Addison Allen(or any by her, they are great chick-lit but not too ditzy)
Feel free to click on my goodreads below for the history of what I've read.
my read shelf:
I am just finishing "Message from an Unknown Chinese Mother," and it's really good. It's heartbreaking at the same time that it shows the love of women in China who gave their daughters up for adoption. I've really enjoyed it.
Are you united with the CCOKCs?
No more baby siggie pics. Boo.
A few I've really liked lately:
The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett (oldie but goodie)
Before Green Gables by Budge Wilson (prequel to the Anne of Green Gables series, and truly amazing)
The Hunger Games series
Garlic and Sapphires by Ruth Reichl
Midnight Never Come by Marie Brennan
The Wednesday Sisters by Meg Waite Clayton
