I started out this month reading a book that I've picked up many times, and always set it aside for another time. This time though, being on a trip and not necessarily wanting to take the book home with me at the end, it seemed to work out.
She's Come Undone - Wally Lamb. This was a really twisted, weird, captivating book. It was the story of a girl who becomes so obese that it rules her life.. and how she deals with it. It was actually a pretty good read, although I wouldn't read it again.
The Book Thief - Markus Zusak. This was our August book club book. This was one of the few that I really loved. The story took place during the Holocaust. It's hard to say much without giving a lot away, but the main character becomes a book thief. It's not at all what I expected (I've taken to not read the back of books lately - it's kind of fun, really not knowing what to expect). I'd highly recommend this one - and while it's classified as a YA book, it wasn't childish in writing style or anything.
Every Little Thing - Pamela Klaffke. Clearly not a memorable book - I had to google it to see what it was about. Clearly wouldn't recommend this one! ;) It was about the daughter of a famous columnist who had died, and how she turns into her mom.. Exciting.
Ender's Game - Orson Scott Card. I really liked this book. It didn't seem as sci-fi as I thought it might be. I've already got the second one out to read, and I'm planning on starting it within the next few days. I think R is planning on reading this one soon, too.
We're having another book club meeting this month after not meeting in September, so I'm hopeful that more fun things will be read this month :)
