Book Club

Okay guys, let's pick a book! My Executive Director at work suggested I read "Song Yet Sung" by James McBride. What do you all think? It's average rating on Amazon is 5 stars!

He also wrote "Color of Water" which, I think, one of you read. Michele, that was you, right? He also wrote "Miracle at St. Anna", which was just made into a movie by Spike Lee. By the way, that movie looks awesome - I really want to see it. Maybe we can read that one?

I know Linda and I were getting into memoirs, biographies and non-fiction books. If that's what we want to do... does any one have a suggestion? And Karen and Mish-- you gotta read "The Glass Castle" at some point.
