Are you a former teacher or do you meet with your former teachers?

I'm in the book club Amy linked to. Water for Elephants was a fabulous book, but my absolute favorite we've read is My Sister's Keeper. I was two months postpartum when I read it (actually, I read it to G, who would sit quietly for it) and I cried and cried, but it's an amazing book.

At my school a few of us run a book club for the students. We did Water for Elephants most recently and had peanuts and popcorn.

Just trot on off over to my blog and do a keyword search for "books to be read." You should find reviews of every book I have read in the last 4 years or so. Happy selecting!

I would recommend Snow Falling on Cedars, which was very good.
