I'd love to know who is here ready to read Since We Fell this November! Give a shoutout below to say Hello and let us know if you have read anything by Dennis Lehane before. I have read Shutter Island and I saw the movies of Shutter Island and Mystic River. I didn't realize until getting into Since We Fell that Lehane has quite a few books that he's written. I'm so excited for reading this one with you all!!

randomreader (goodreadscomrandomreader) | 43 comments I’m planning on joining this month! I’ve never read anything by Lehane before. :) I picked this out from BOTM a while back so I’m excited to finally get to it.


message 3: by Debbi (new)

Debbi Faust I will be reading this one sometime this month. I did read Shutter Island and I loved it. Have fun reading everyone.


message 4: by Patricia (new)

Patricia | 19 comments Hi Krista, I'll be joining you this month reading Since We Fell. I've never read anything by Dennis Lehane. I can't even remember if I saw the movie Sutter Island. I'll see if I can find that movie. I'd like to watch it this weekend to get me in a Lehane mood.


message 5: by Debbi (new)

Debbi Faust Hey, Patricia! I just wanted to let you know I am getting the movie, Shutter Island, from my library. Maybe you could do the same.


message 6: by Desiree (new)

Desiree Becker | 2 comments Hi! I am reading this month’s book and went into it, knowing nothing about what it was about. And I’ve never read anything by this author.


message 7: by Amber (new)

Amber Eats Books (ambereatsbooks) | 12 comments Hi everyone! I’m excited to be joining in again this month. This will be my first Dennis Lehane book. I’ve watched The movies based on his previous books. I really enjoyed them so I’m interested to see if I will like his writing style.

message 10: by Debbi (new)

Debbi Faust YAY! Enjoy! I am still waiting to get mine from the library. I read the book. It was definitely a thriller.

Glad you'll be reading along with us Debbi! I liked Shutter Island too! I should check if I can find the movie online! I don't have a DVD player anymore so I'll have to find it online. Hopefully...

I didn't know too much about it before starting either, Desiree! I hope it will be a good one! I'm enjoying it so far. I think Lehane has an easy writing style to get caught up in.

Donnajo Hiya Everyone. I have Dennis's book on my nook I started it for a group read at another point but didn't get far so I'm hoping to get motivated to read this this month if I can squeeze it in with arcs to read and reserved library books that seem to show up all at the same time. Looking forward to getting to know everyone and talking books. I heard you talked about on Amber's video and decided to check the group out.

Welcome back Wendy! I hope you do get a chance to read The Kitchen House. It was pretty intense, but I'm so glad I read it. Feel free to hop back to previous months discussions too if you need to share your thoughts! Glad you're back with us for Nov!

Hi Wendy! Yay!! I'm glad you'll still be reading Kitchen House. Feel free to pop back into last month's discussion boards and add your thoughts. I'll see your comments and would love to still discuss that one. It was heavy, but so good!

I hope you enjoy both these books!

Great! We're glad to have you here with us! Hope Lehane's writing is a nice surprise and lives up to the hype for you!

Beth | 6 comments I’m joining this month’s read once I receive it from Book Outlet. Trying to patiently wait for my order! I’ve read and enjoyed other Lehane books, so I am excited to read this one.
