Options for December/January


Hi Friends. We have 3 books to choose from for December/January. We'll be meeting at Camp Bar in Shorewood in late January, so that means we have a few extra weeks to get the reading done. So maybe we can go for a longer book.

The Story of the Lost Child by Elena Ferrante. I hear this book is hot on the book club scene.
"Everyone's reading it." It's (maybe) an autobiographical story of the mysterious author's childhood growing up in Italy.

Devil in the White City by Erik Larson. A critically acclaimed non-fiction account of a serial killer on the loose in Chicago during the 1893 World's Fair.

The Girl In the Train by Paula Hawkins. Voted (by a landslide) by Goodreads readers as the best thriller of 2015. It's been compared to Gone Girl.

Pick your favorite and vote. Scroll down below this post to find the poll. Voting ends December 11th.

See you in January!

Happy reading.

  3. I appreciate being given the opportunity to think about everything that I watch, listen to, and read. My eyes were opened throughout the chapters as different points were made. I was able to recognize how the media has personally affected me. I hope that I am more aware of the media around me. It is my goal to share what I have learned with my students and their parents in newsletters, conversations, and possibly conferences. I look forward to the next book study.for more learndrbarbaraseniorsharkinsfoundation.blogspot.com
