I have just finished reading THE HELP by Kathryn Stockett. I rate it a 5. It held my interest from chapter to chapter. Being a girl from Iowa, I found this a whole different life.

I also have just finished VERY VALENTINE by Adriana Trigiani. also a 5. Adriana's books keep getting better. This was a great lesson on how they make shoes, something I never thought of before. I especially liked the fact that she did not have the heroine live happily ever after at the end.

Three books I've read recently that I'd like to discuss are TESTIMONY (Anita Shreve), THE SENATOR'S WIFE (Sue Miller), and the book I'm currently reading, HANDLE WITH CARE (Jodi Picoult). All three of them deal with issues that would make for lively conversations and varying opinions.

So many good books cross my path, but the 3 most discussible books I've read recently are:

NORTH RIVER - Pete Hamill
SHELTER ME - Juliette Fay
MATRIMONY - Joshua Henkin

Debbie Murphy
Definitely WE WERE THE MULVANEYS (Joyce Carol Oates), THE DOUBLE BIND (Chris Bohjalian), and especially TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD (Harper Lee). It's interesting to hear which character people think symbolizes the Mockingbird.

Juanita Adamson
JUBILEE by Margaret Walker
The "slavery" story to GONE WITH THE WIND. So many concepts to think about.

Louise
I'll probably think of more when I have time to think, period, but the one series of books I have discussed with others more than any I have EVER read is Stephenie Meyers' Twilight books. I have found people talking about it around the world and on international flights.

Some in my family are on the 4th reading; they just can't quit, while some have seen the movie version at least 3 times.

I can't quite remember the name, but it is something like THE LITTLE GIANT OF ABERDEEN COUNTY. "Little" doesn't seem quite the right word, and I have loaned the book out already. I loved Truly and missed her when the book ended, but there are many issues to discuss within these pages.

I guess there is a theme here: THOSE WHO SAVE US, HOTEL ON THE CORNER OF BITTER AND SWEET and SARAH'S KEY. They all are World War II books (in part) and are all well written and deal with, at least in part, aspects of the War that don't get as much press as some others. They are excellent reads.
