Book Clubs are Talking About...

October 23, 2008

This weekend is the third annual Book Group Expo and we'll be reporting live from the show with Book Club Girl on Air radio interviews with Marisa de los Santos (Love Walked In and Belong to Me), Diane Hammond (Hannah's Dream), Diana Spechler (Who By Fire) and Garth Stein (The Art of Racing in the Rain)! Look for interviews to be posted throughout the weekend as well as guest posts from these authors and more including Joshua Henkin, author of Matrimony. If any of you are heading to BGE, I'd love to hear from you too. I alas, won't be going, due to being quite pregnant at this point, but my colleague Nicole will be there representing Book Club Girl, visiting with authors like Brunonia Barry (The Lace Reader) and Masha Hamilton (The Camel Bookmobile), and holding a raffle, so look for her table in the Marketplace. We'll also hear from Carol Fitzgerald, founder of ReadingGroupGuides.com. I can't wait to hear about all the goings on!

this is great that we will be able to listen to the authors. I have been wanting to go since I heard about this year. I can't believe how much it has grown in the past 3 years. I wanted to get something together in our community. But it just never worked out. Maybe some day soon. When are you expecting??

Jen,
I didn't know you were pregnant,
Congrats!!!! This is your second birth child, correct? Is it the same sex as the first child/opposite or do you know?
Have a restful weekend!

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.
