the Totally Literature bookclub.
I figure that I can send a link to the bookclub group, even tho they are not bloggers, they can read and see the list (chosen by different members of the group), or see the book, as the case may be.
This club is a very eclectic group, with eclectic choices.
As most of my bookgroups are.
Here are the choices for the next few months for the Totally Lit bookclub:
The Art of Racing in the Rain by Garth Stein--September 24th
Tangerine by Edward Bloor-- October 29th
Up Pops the Devil by Angels Benson--November 19th
And as an extra bonus, here are September choices for--they don't have a name, so I will call them:
New Book Club
RED, Passion and Patience in the Desert by Terry Tempest Williams--September 25th
Library Book Club
The Basque Hotel by Robert Laxalt--September 16th
My 4th bookclub is "The Literary Guild" and it is the oldest social club in our little town of Winnemucca, NV. I am 49 years old and I am one of the "young ones" who are kind of upsetting some of the older ladies, with our wild thoughts and crazy ways.
We don't all read the same book, but have "book talks" at a local restaurant once a month.
Then in this blogworld, I have signed up for 3 or 4 reading challenges....crazy me! I know how those old ladies feel about me now. ~grins~
As you can tell, different people like different books and that is the point of letting others chose. It isn't always easy to give up that control of what you read, but it's really rewarding in some ways to get outside of your box. Some of them are regional, some local authors, some mass-market media, some literature, a little bit of everything. It should be fun!
I'll be giving my short little reviews on here after each bookclub meeting.
I also have no idea why my pictures got smaller and smaller as the blog went on. This in no way my opinion of the books. :~) I haven't even read most of them.

I like hearing about other people's book clubs! You've got some interesting selections here.
Thanks for leaving a comment on my blog about 5 People in Heaven. And this does look like an eclectic list of books!! I haven't even heard of any of them!
