August Book Club

I've started a book club!  And you are all welcome to join us online via blogger or (if you're a MN friend) shoot me a message and I'll give you the details to meet us in person!

I'll be posting a new book each month that we'll be reading, and the first up is Rebecca, by Daphne Du Maurier.

When I got my copy in the mail, I was a little worried that it might turn out to be a trashy romance novel...
Doesn't it look like a trashy beach read??
... but I've been pleasantly relieved of that anxiety.  It's a story about a second wife who feels the haunting presence of the wife who came before her, and weaves in elements of gothic romance a la Charlotte Bronte. So far it's been an easy and enjoyable read.

Join us and read it too!!
