Sharan just sent me this note of the Antigua Book Club selections for 2017. Thought this would be interesting to share:
Here's a list of possible reads for 2017. Needless to say, we
welcome any and all other suggestions. They ALL have at least 4 stars
and are VERY different. The general consensus is to read the trilogy of
Fredrik Backman, "A Man Called Ove", "My Grandmother
Asked Me to Tell You She's Sorry", and "Britt-Marie Was Here", to be
discussed in late January.
"Lawrence In Arabia, the Making of the Modern Middle East" by Scott Anderson
"The Mandibler: A Family, 2029-2047" by Leonel Schriver
"A Tale for the Time Being" by Ruth Azeki
"The Sell-out" by Paul Beatty
"The Gift of Rain" by Tan Twan Eng
"A Separate Peace" by John Knowles
"Hard Red Spring" by Kelly Kerney
"Krakatora, the Day the World Exploted, August 27, 1883" by Simon Winchester
