The Dates Have Been Set

My book club met tonight to pick our books for the year.  I think we ended up with some great picks.

Here's what we'll be reading and discussing this year.

Feb 4.  Living, Loving & Learning by Leo Buscaglia

Mar 4.  A Country Year by Sue Hubbell

Apr 1.  The Omnivore's Dilemma by Michael Pollan

May 13.  Great Expectations by Charles Dickens

Jun 3.  Me Talk Pretty One Day by David Sedaris

Jul 1.  The Help by Katheryn Stockett

Aug 5.   Imperfect Birds by Anne Lamott

Sep 2.  The Year of Living Biblically by A.J. Jacobs

Oct 7.  The Story of Edgar Sawtelle by David Wroblewki

Nov 4.  The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer, Annie Barrows

Dec  2.  The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks by Rebecca Skloot

Three of the books on my list got picked and I've been wanting to read "The Omnivore's Dilemma" and "The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks", so I was thrilled that those were on other ladies' lists.

I need the book group to stretch me in the reading department otherwise I'd only read non-fiction and memoirs.  It's good to get some other genres into the mix.
