So the church lady book group was reading the Book Thief this month...I have not been going lately (didn't want to read Garrison Keillor for October, and was away for the summer), so when Jackie told me this would be the book, I knew she chose it because I love it. It was like a personal invitation to come back.
So I read the first 400 pages over the weekend (it is a quick read), but put off finishing it till this afternoon because I knew it would be emotionally draining - this is a book that makes you just sob towards the last few chapters, although it does end very uplifting, not depressing at all. I love this book. I think I blogged about it already last year. So yes, I STILL love this book.
Jackie didn't get back from the weekend on the Cape, unfortunately. Nobody else either finished the book, started it, or had anything to say about it. What a waste of time! I don't think I am going to be staying with this group. The Panera group meets at the same time and they are more into the books than the visiting.
