If you have any books you would like to suggest for the September, October, November book club meetings, please post them now.They are more likely to be selected if they're available on the kindle. I think we'll try to meet the last Sunday of September, unless there are objections.
Pineapples: I know you mentioned one at some point, I don't have that information... do you want to put it on the list?
Re: INBC: Time to pick books
I really loved Dreams of Joy. For some reason, I didn't care for Shanghai Girls as much when I was reading it, but looking back on it, I have no idea why I felt that way. Maybe on it's own it wasn't as good as the two of them together.
Have you read anything else by Lisa See? (I'll probably not be able to reply today, but I'll be back tomorrow to read if you respond.)
I haven't - what would you suggest?
I understand what you mean, I think it was the two of them together I loved so much. Shanghai Girls ended pretty abruptly.

I'm also in a slump, and I also just read Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet.
As for other Lisa See books, I enjoyed Peony In Love, but it made me really mad. I almost didn't finish reading it, but it was the only book I brought with me on vacation. The part that made me mad was in the back of the book description, but I still didn't want it to happen. Also, Snowflower & the Secret Fan is going to be coming out as a movie soon. They're both great books.
I think she also has a mystery series, but I haven't read any of those.
