NOT Stephenie Meyers, but instead Bram Stoker's Dracula, Elizabeth Kostova's The Historian, and Susan Hubbard's The Society of S and The Year of Disappearances (which are both about the same characters). I'll be reading them all for the second time, with great pleasure.M.

I don't know what themes you have coming up, but it's about the Midwest, family tragedy and redemption, and it just seems like you'd like it from what you've read in the past. <BR/><BR/>Full disclosure, I work for the publisher, but this is an entirely sincere recommendation. I also sent your book club post to my mother in Mt. Vernon, IL for inspiration! <BR/><BR/>AmyAmyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02869403419144627555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11944565.post-77560194701541579222008-11-24T23:36:00.000-06:002008-11-24T23:36:00.000-06:00Great book lists to be shared with my fellow booki...Great book lists to be shared with my fellow bookies!

Yours sounds like a great challenge and a lot of fun.<BR/><BR/>Actually I am surprised at how many of these titles I have read since I am not the reader I used to be. Did you really love "The Sparrow"? that book still haunts me a little especially since a friend and I were responsible for bringing snacks for our group that month. In that group we always tried to bring something that tied into the plot of the novel. That month was a particularly interesting challenge and I haven't forgotten!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02847319383348999446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11944565.post-37975955210465408992008-11-24T08:32:00.000-06:002008-11-24T08:32:00.000-06:00Alanna, I too helped to start a book club with fri...Alanna, I too helped to start a book club with friends when I lived in NC, which I had to leave behind when I moved back to IL. We named ours Read Between the Wines Book Club - we are a bit social too. The club continues, but I have not found a new group in IL - guess I should follow your lead and start my own. Loved your list and your theme idea. Have emailed your post to my RBTW friends.

Fortunately, one of those legal types asked me if I was interested in joining her book group, and when I did, I found a great group of friends. We don't have themes, so our book list meanders all over the place, but several of us are/were teachers and professors, and we're all avid readers, so I think we come up with interesting choices (with a few clunkers thrown in there for fun.)
