Book Club Favorite The Memory Keeper's Daughter on TV this Weekend!

MemoryI know many of you read and loved The Memory Keeper's Daughter, a book that is on virtually all book group favorites lists. This weekend Lifetime is airing the adaptation of the book, starring Dermot Mulroney, Emily Watson and Gretchen Mol. Watch a clip plus insights with the cast here. It looks great and I can't wait to see how they transform the book into a movie and would love to hear what you all think. It airs this Saturday night at 9 PM ET/PT. Read the first chapter of the book here, enter to win a signed copy here and read a Q&A with author Kim Edwards, plus listen to a podcast and get book group discussion questions here!

A little off topic, but did you read the article about the move of Project Runway to Lifetime in the NY Times and much it has upset long-time PR fans?

I did and thought it was so strange. But it sounds like NBC is fighting to keep it on Bravo (which they own).

My book club is going to meet tonight to discuss this book, I cannot wait. I was not able to see the movie since I canceled everything on my cable except 20 or so basic channels so I am really hoping a few members saw it so they can fill me in on how it was.

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.

My Review Policy

  • I review fiction and nonfiction that is appropriate for book clubs. This includes literary and some women's commercial fiction as well as memoir and narrative nonfiction. I do not review self-help, thrillers, mysteries, horror, or fantasy. I have a fondness for YA literature and while the blog is not devoted to it (well, except for my obsession with the Betsy-Tacy series), I will occasionally review some YA books. The best way to reach me to request a review is to email me at bookclubgirl AT gmail DOT com.
