Book Club Recommendations
My friends and I recently started a book club. Anyone have some suggestions for some good books that lead to good discussions?
So far we have read:
March--The Help
April--Hunger Games
May--Sarah's Key
June--Love in Mid-Air
July--Every Last One
August--going to read Book Thief
We have really like all so far with the exception of Love in Mid-Air. And although we all loved Hunger Games, it was a little bit difficult to discuss--once we have all read all three I think it might be easier.
What is your book club reading??

I LOVED True Colors! I think Kristin Hannah is an amazing writer. I read about four of her books at the beginning of the summer. I can't wait to read more.
