Water for Elephants: A Novel by Sara Gruen

Adventurous, Dramatic, Interesting

A young man learns to live and an old man learns to die; life is a circus.

A pleasant read that touches on the weighty topics of life with a soft hand. The book's plot and movement focus on several pairs of character foils, which gives book clubs much to discuss.

Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell: A Novel by Susanna Clarke

Epic, Fun, Adventurous

that rare thing: intllectualism done pleasasntly

A book you can chew on--so many themes, from ambition to the way that the Trinity is actually more than that--all wrapped in a teasingly light, Jane Austen-like tone. Read over and over.

Insightful, Interesting, Gloomy

difficult but rewarding

This book has so many truths, and many will make you uncomfortable, but it is incredibly well-written and worth it.
