Water for Elephants: Library Edition by Sara Gruen

Book Club Recommended

Dramatic, Adventurous, Fantastic

A Wonderful Book!

A must read!!

Little Bee: A Novel by Chris Cleave

Dramatic, Insightful, Interesting

I Don't understand all the hype

Slow to get into. Very violent, graphic and morbid. Tried to be inspirational however Cleave does not commit to his cause and leaves the reader wondering if the tragedy and violence depicted is real or fictionalized. My book club wondered why we should care. Just as the story gets going Cleave rushes to get to the end leaving the reader feeling empty and short changed.

Running with Scissors: A Memoir by Augusten Burroughs

Book Club Recommended

Graphic, Dark, Difficult

Funny Book

Read this a while back. Very humorous and dark about a severely dysfunctional "family". Much funnier in text then on film
