Oprah's New Book Club Pick is Ken Follett's Pillars of the Earth

Oprah has announced her winter book club pick and it's Ken Follett's The Pillars of the Earth! In his epic tale of the generations who built the greatest Gothic cathedral ever known, Follett illuminates a struggle between good and evil and church and state that pits brother against brother in the Middle Ages.

Who is Book Club Girl?

Book Club Girl is: a member of a book club and an avid reader who spent most of her childhood immersed in a book, an English major who considered library school until she realized it was all about computers, so turned to publishing, where she now works (but she vows to talk about books from all over and not to simply flog those from her own house). She was single, lived in the city, met a man, moved to the 'burbs, and is now a wife, a stepmother, a mother, and in her spare time, a fledgling blogger dedicated to sharing great books, news and tips with book club girls everywhere.
