How are you gals doing with the Book Club reading?

I can't even remember what we called ourselves....Brains and Brawn or something along those lines.

I am just curious how the summer has gone for you all in that area. I was attempting the Faulkner set with Oprah, but got a bit sidetracked. I made it through As I Lay Dying and 1/2 way through Light In August. I loved them, but I just never had the time it took to read a book that forces me to think about it so much. Not casual light easy reads that's for sure. I work best under pressure so actually as the summer winds down I know I will crank them out. Especially because we have The Kite Runner coming up!

The only other book I can report on is The Mermaid Chair. I have squeezed that one in because I have to actually finish something before school starts so I don't feel like an utter failure. LOVE IT!! When I grow up ;) I want to write like that woman! She has the most amazing style, and writes things that I have thought, but never thought to write. I loved The Secret Life of Bees as well, and highly recommend these to anyone on the fence.

Your turn!
 
I've been waiting for fall to get some time to open up a book and read it. You've given me some good suggestions, thank you.

What is "The Secret Life of Bees" about? I've seen it, but never gotten it.

Thanks,
Marcia
