meggie Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Any body have any favorite books that they've used for their book clubs? :bigear: I mention it every other week, but I love the Fitzwilliam Darcy, A Gentleman Trilogy by Pamela Aidan.

meggie Posted September 12, 2011 Author Share Posted September 12, 2011 One of my faves that my book club read recently is Still Alice --- an interesting book about a woman with early onset Alzheimer's disease from her perspective. Awwww....Sounds like a great read. I will probably be crying the whole way through. :crying: Alzheimer's is a huge fear of mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stacia Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Our best book club discussion came from reading The Sparrow by Mary Doria Russell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PiCO Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 One of my faves that my book club read recently is Still Alice --- an interesting book about a woman with early onset Alzheimer's disease from her perspective. My book club read this also. Excellent. The author is a neurologist, so she was able to draw a lot from experiences with her patients. She has another book- Left Neglected, which is also very interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WIS0320 Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 My book group is reading The Game of Kings by Dorothy Dunnett right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melinda in VT Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Our best book club discussion came from reading The Sparrow by Mary Doria Russell. I read this one on my own, but I agree it would make a fantastic book for book group. This year, I read Room (thanks to Julie in Austin whose review finally convinced me to read it) and The Butterfly Mosque, both of which were good for discussion.
