I belong to a book club that meets usually once a month. Reading is one of my passions. In fact, reading 100 books in a year is on my Bucket List (cleary, this will have to be accomplished when I am either a full time candle chickie or retired). This year, I want to read 50. I am currently sitting at 29, with two started. But I digress.
Each person in our book club gets to choose a book or two that the group will read throughout the year. I tend to pick memoirs and non fiction. The other girls, fiction (which can be ok). While I have not loved every book that I have read in the two plus years the club has been meeting (ask me about Loving Frank if you are brave enough), I can honestly say that I would have never picked to read many of these books on my own. This has been a great way for me to expand my reading horizons and get to appreciate some new authors and new genres. I have also been able to make new friends and get my Panera bread bowl fix once a month. It is a winning situation all around.
Since this blog is all about happiness and positivity, here are my top five reads from book club.
1) The Help
2) The Book Thief
3) Angela's Ashes
4) The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime
5) The Five Languages of Love
