Book For August is The Inheritance of Loss

The book for our August book club is The Inheritance of Loss by Kiran Desai. This is the 2007 Booker Man Award Winner. As we were discussing last Tuesday night, the book is dense with description, and a little bit slower reading. It is probably not something you want to save until the last minute to go out and buy, thinking you can knock it out in a weekend. (I don't even think Erica could read this one that fast.) The August meeting will be August 28 at 7:30.

We also went ahead and made our pick for September: Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen. Start thinking about some other books you would like to be reading and we can plan a couple of more months ahead next time we meet. Remember, both fiction and non-fiction are fair game in this group.

Happy reading and see you soon. ~ Jen
