Book Club List

At my last book club, we were discussing how in April it will be our two year anniversary! When I first decided to try to put my life-long dream of belonging to a book club in action, I didn't have very many girlfriends in Columbus. I asked one of my best friends, Tara; my sister, Amanda; my husband's best friend's wife, Kristin; and a few other not-so-close friends. These three, along with two people Kristin brought, came to my house for the first meeting. Now there are seven of us and almost all of them are my best friends. I look forward to our monthly meetings so much, not just to discuss the great book choices, but also to catch up. We all see each other outside of book club, as well; however, book club nights are always some of the best!



As we reflected a little on how book club has changed and grown, we realized we should have a "master list" of all the books we've read. So, that is what I'm listing below.
