Does self publishing scare you away, or are you one of the dedicated readers out there who will devour a good book no matter how it ended up in print?A great example of a very successful…Continue

Do you judge a book by it's cover? Which is your favorite?

- About Me:
- I am 48 and only started to really read for pleasure about 5 years ago. After watching my daughter devour book after book, my interest grew. Now, not only does she read them, she is also writing them. So, now I have even greater reason to read. She recently had her second fantasy fiction novel published. You can check her out at http://www.markellegrabo.com Besides reading and meeting with mybook club, I love to scrap book, camp,bike, hike and garden and go to movies with my daughter. And of course I love to shop.

Firefly Lane by Kristin Hannah
This is a story about true and everlasting friendship. A bond that even through the trials of teenage angst, college optimism, and the formation of new family trees, never dies.
Kate and Tully related to us, as us. We shared their music, their experiences and understood their struggles. We relate either by ways of self experience or by knowing someone who mirrored their lives.
Kristin Hannah gave our book club a full two hours of great discussion. She brought Kate, Tully,…

My book clubs review of Journey into the Realm: The Elf Girl by Markelle Grabo
The Triple B Book Club, Wisconsin, found this book a delight to read. We are all over 40 and had a great night of discussion.
