Lit Collective: An Online Reading Retreat discussion

All the poll results are in and we now have our reading list for March's online retreat! Here they are:

FICTION

The Light Between Oceans...M.L. Stedman
The Gendarme...Mark Mustian
The Sandcastle Girls...Chris Bohjalian
Doctor Zhivago...Boris Pasternak

NON-FICTION

The Perfect Summer: England 1911, Just Before the Storm...Juliet Nicolson

As we get closer to March, we will have a schedule worked out regarding which books will be up for discussion first, etc. In the mean time, let's get reading!

Remember, if you have any questions, leave a comment or message me here on Goodreads.

Looks like a good selection! I'm off to start placing requests at my library :-)

Looks great! I can't wait to start :-)

so we are going to do a kind of read-along on each of these books, right?

Emma, it's like an online reading retreat. You have between now and March to read the books and then we will discuss them in March. I will be coming up with a schedule of what we'll be discussing when soon.

Let me know if you have any other questions. I'm here to help!

Will questions be posted early on, for note-taking? I know I won't remember what I read that far in advance!

That's a good point, Kim. I'll see what I can come up with and I'll post them here. Give me a couple of weeks, if you don't mind. =O) We'll have a discussion thread for each book.

Looking forward to diving in on The Light Between Oceans. I may try for the non-fiction one too if I can find the time. Excited to see the discussions in any case :)
