Mona – I remember reading Stones from the River years ago and loving it. The other books that you mentioned, I have not heard of. Thanks for your suggestions!

They are all on my book shelf…still – so to me that means I will read them all again. They are all so different though Villa Incognito produced the funnest wackiest craziest book club meeting we ever had!!

Welcome Abbey! We read Middlesex, and I agree it was a good book club book. I love Naomi Ragen, but have not read The Ghost Of Hannah Mendes. I am going to put it on my “to read” list. Thank you for your suggestions. I am going to look them up!
