    Krystina said earlier that we'd pick another one after the holidays. I'm reading Deer Season... and I can't remember the author! It's good though. It's a murder mystery, and a nice quick read, I thought I'd squeeze it in before our next one ;)

    What about something by Koontz? I've never read him before. Someone suggest a title!

    The Moonlit Mind
    Sole Survivor

    I vote for Sole Survivor for our group's purpose, as The Moonlit Mind is a short story. (I am going to read it on my own though) I am a huge fan of Koontz's Odd Thomas series, but have not been able to finish many of his other books, for one reason or another. Sole Survivor looks like a good read.

    Ive never read any Koontz before. This book looks really, really good and I would enjoy reading it!

    Just want to add that I just finished "The Light Between Oceans" - suuuuuuuper good book!

    I see that Snow flower and the Secret fan is on your 'to read' list. It was a good read, you should give it a go :) It's a nice quick read, if you are a fan of Lisa See's other work. I am getting Sole survivor today, sounds like that's where we're headed next!
    If we decide to read something else, that's ok too :)

    I've read a couple Lisa See books and I think she's great! I'll try to get to those books in the very near future! Right now I'm reading "The Painted Girls" by Cathy Marie Buchanan - it's about ballet dancers in Paris in the 1800s. Found it on GoodReads, which is why I LOVE that app - I'm always reading different things that I wouldn't have found myself.

    On that note, it looks like Sole Survivor it is! With the holidays, I'll be starting the book on or just after the 1st but feel free to start whenever! I'll open up a new thread.

    FRIENDS - It's time to pick a new book! Throw some ideas out there!

    I have several on my Kindle waiting on me. Death in the beginning by Gary Williams, Worth the weight by Mara Jacobs, Black Jasmine by Toby Neal all crime novels.
    Several that were suggested last month would be great.

    Looks like our book club is already dwindling :(

    Does it really matter if we're just 3 or 4? Let's keep each other reading good books.
    I think I picked the last one so it's your turn. :wink:

    "The Night Circus" by Erin Morgenstern... One I've been wanting to read! I'll open up a new thread for it, and hopefully others will start to read!

    I probably won't be around for a week or two, have some personal issues to deal with, but I'll be reading and WILL be back :smile:
