Chapter Chat Book Club: Books of the Year

Books through the Year.

We have had a wide range of books this year and hopefully we can continue to read different styles, genres, and eras.

Here's a list of all the books we have Bought, Attempted and Finished.

February: The Night Manager. By: Jonh Le Carre'

This choice was more difficult than any of us had expected. for those few of you who had finished it. I salute you!

March: The Ninth Life of Louis Drax. By: Liz Jensen

Most of the Group seemed to really enjoy this choice. It seemed to have taken everyone on a different psychological journey.

April: Still Alice. By: Lisa Genova

This one..... well it had gotten great reviews from everyone. I know only a few had actually read it and a few had seen the film. It was an "easy" read but not and EASY read. Somethings are harder to read when it deals with real life topics.

May: The Girl on the Train. By: Paula Hawkins

I believe this is the first book the majority of the group couldn't put down. The mystery and thrill of figuring out what Rachael was up to. I know now everyone is more excited because it is soon to be a Feature Film!

June: A Walk in the Woods. By: Bill Bryson

Such a fun read. Reading about a persons journeys along the Appalachian Trail is always a treat, especially one so goofy and entertaining. I know after reading this made us all want to do this journey or one like it ourselves.

July: The Horrors of Oakendale Abbey. By: Mrs.Carver.

This one was defiantly interesting on a count that it was a romance. I mean who wants a man to stick you in a Haunted Abbey for a week? I enjoyed this as a our classic because it wasn't the classic i was expecting,

August: At The Waters Edge. By: Sara Gruen.

I believe this was an overall favorite with us all. It had it all...Tragedy, Romance, Mystery, a bit of Comedy and the Loch Ness Monster, I mean who can go wrong there,

September: Yes, Please. By: Amy Poehler.

This was our autobiography and i know we had picked it because we Love Amy Poehler as an actress and a Comedian. The way Amy had attempted this Autobiography was a bit off, Unfortunately it made some of us feel very different about her; as a person after reading this selection. Hopefully our next autobiography or memoir will change our attitude towards them.

October: The Shining Girls. By: Lauren Beukes,
