SEPTEMBER READS

Hey ladies,

September's picks were EASY to collect from you all. Thanks so much for fast responses to my e-mails! As previously discussed, we're letting Lisa and Karen (two bookfest stalkers and occasional readers) make two of our selections for next month. Per usual, I like to pick the next month's books in advance just incase I need to make an interlibrary loan request (which is frequently the case). However, I don't think we'll have much of a problem in September. Both of our guest selectors offered me a couple of choices and both seemed to think that Wodehouse was in order as apparently we shouldn't go without one of his books on our list. So without further ado, and barring objection, these are September's books:

1. A Tale of Two Cities, by Charles Dickens (Carrie);

2. The Witch of Blackbird Pond, by Elizabeth George Speare (Rose);

3. The Count of Monte Cristo, by Alexandre Dumas (Lisa); and

4. Piccadilly Jim, by P.G. Wodehouse (Karen).

October's picks go to Sky, Erika, Anneke & Bonnie so be thinking! If you already know what you will pick, please leave a comment here that way I can just come back to this post and see what your selections were when the time comes. It's nice to stay ahead of the game.

Thanks and happy reading!

What great choices! I can't wait to read these books again and hash over them with y'all!
Regarding a book for October, have any of you read Peter Tremayne's Sister Fidelma books? The first one in the series is "Absolution By Murder"

Or perhaps "Freckles" by Gene Stratton Porter?

Or perhaps "Comstock Lode" by Louis Lamour?

Whadda ya think?
