People of the Book - Geraldine Brooks
Very interesting read. Not the type of book I would ever pick up but that is the beauty of bookclub.
February 2016
Longbourn - Jo Baker
A story of the servants in the Pride and Prejudice book (kind of like Downton Abbey). I really enjoyed this book.
March 2016
Thoughtless - S.C. Stephens
Another book I never would have read. A little racy for me, but it was like going by a car accident and not looking. Once I got started I needed to see how it finished.

The Light Between Oceans - M. L. Stedman
Enjoyed this book but I sobbed buckets. I can't bring myself to go to the movie.

The #1 Ladies Detective Agency - Alexander McCall Smith
Fabulous book. Have read it before. Is always a very fun read.
June 2016
The Red Tent - Anita Diamant
A fictional telling of Dinah's story from the bible. I enjoyed this book. Lots about birthing babies!
September 2016
The Little Old Lady Who Broke All the Rules - Catharina Ingelman-Sundberg
Very fun book. This was the first bookclub meeting I missed, was sick.
October 2016
Oryx and Cakes - Margaret Atwood
I tried several times to start this book. First book I didn't finish for the bookclub meeting. I must admit I am not a Margaret Atwood fan.
November 2016
The Girl on the Train - Paula Hawkins
I really enjoyed this book. Some fun twists.
I hosted November's meeting. It is always so fun to host. Since the main character of the book is an alcoholic I decided to serve "wine and beer" (the LDS versions - martinelli's and vanilla cream soda).
I also had sausage, cheese and crackers, chicken wings, 7 layer dip and chips, homemade chocolates, mini cheesecakes and cream puffs.
One of these times I'll remember to take a picture of our group. I'm excited to see what we will read in 2017.
So fun!! I wrote your list of books down! Now I have some good ideas of books to look for! The only one I've read on your list is The Girl on the Train and I too really liked it!
ReplyDeleteSo cool you started that group and it's still going. Congrats. Thanks for the list of books. I thought girl on a train was ok and I enjoy how ladies detective agency is written. I'm currently reading the 7th in the series. Others on your list I for sure am going to try to find.
