My Reviews

The Painted Veil by W. Somerset Maugham

Life Changing, Dark, Insightful

Book Sparks Discussion!

The Painted Veil created the most lively discussion our group has ever had. Opinions about the characters varied widely and we talked as much about the author's intent as we did the story.

The History of Love: A Novel by Nicole Krauss

Confusing, Interesting, Beautiful

History of Love is Confusing

No one in our group liked this book. Everyone found it confusing and felt that it came to no cohesive conclusion. This was the least popular book our group read this year. After reading the preceding reviews, it would seem that other groups found something in this book that we did not.

Three Cups of Tea: One Man's Mission to Promote Peace - One School at a Time by Greg Mortenson, David Oliver Relin

Inspiring, Informative, Insightful

Excellent book for conversation.

Everyone in our club enjoyed this book. Many felt it was an eye opener as to the true nature of the problems in Pakistan and Afghanistan.

Snow Flower and the Secret Fan: A Novel by Lisa See

Informative, Dramatic, Interesting

The book touched us all deeply and the conversation surrounding culture differences was fascinating.
