Atlanta's A-List Literates discussion

Hello Book Club Friends - Just wanted to make sure everyone was aware we are reading The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah this month for group meeting on July 25. Next month for August we are reading a Decatur Book Festival author and NOT meeting on our usual last Monday slot, so that we can instead meet up at the festival the week after. I couldn't bring myself to choose a Pat Conway book, so it was between Ron Rash and Alexander Chee. Both have upcoming books that aren't out yet, so I chose the popular book Serena by Ron Rash (I would have chosen Edinburgh by Alexander Chee but it's not out on paperback yet). For September, we don't have a selection yet, but I would like the group to choose something older and classic. I'm actually leaning toward Valley of the Dolls (yes, I know, but I blame NPR because they did a recent story on it). There are other book selections posted here to take us through the end of the year. I welcome your feedback. Happy Reading!

I have not read Valley of the Dolls, so that would be my vote. What days do you meet and where? Thank you.

The Shadow of the Wind by Carlos Luis Zafron or a classic like Tess of the d'Ubervilles or The Golden Bowl? Don't think I can do Valley of the Dolls.

Hi Krista - We meet at Eddie's Attic in Decatur, every last Monday of the month. However, this month we are skipping our regular time and meeting at the Decatur Book Festival instead. Details to come...
