June Book Choice

Hello all, This month we had a small turn out, but as always we had a good time. Last month we read Bright Young Things.  Only a few of us made it to the end, but those that did, and what was read, we all agreed was very good.  I made it through the first half and if there was more time in the day I would have never put it down.  Overall I think we agreed that this was about a 3.5 on our scale of 5.

This month, Chantelle brought the book choices.  After a little debate, we decided on Julia Heaberlin's, Playing Dead.

“Dear Tommie: Have you ever wondered about who you are?”
 
The letter that turns Tommie McCloud’s world upside down arrives from a stranger only days after her father’s death. The woman who wrote it claims that Tommie is her daughter—and that she was kidnapped as a baby thirty-one years ago.

Tommie wants to believe it’s all a hoax, but suddenly a girl who grew up on a Texas ranch finds herself  linked to a horrific past: the slaughter of a family in Chicago, the murder of an Oklahoma beauty queen, and the kidnapping of a little girl named Adriana. Tommie races along a twisting, nightmarish path while an unseen stalker is determined to keep old secrets locked inside the dementia-battered brain of the woman who Tommie always thought was her real mother. With everything she has ever believed in question, and no one she can trust, Tommie must discover the truth about the girl who vanished—and the very real threats that still remain. 

This looks like an exciting choice.  Our next meeting will be at Carly's on the 18th of July.

Heather I hope you can make it for July, I know you will be ready to pop, but we'd like to have you with us one more time before that little girl comes.

Happy Reading,
 Amy Jo
