Happy Thanksgiving from Book Club Girl

Corrections I hope that everyone has a restful and rewarding Thanksgiving, with friends and family. We'll be hosting at our house, but my in laws are bringing half the food, so that's a relief. The pies are done, as is the stuffing. Now I'm just trying to get this darn bird to thaw. In honor of Thanksgiving, here is a link to Susan Stamberg's famous Cranberry Relish recipe, which she recites on NPR every year. I"ve yet to make it, but love the tradition of hearing it read aloud each Thanksgiving. And, because the cover just always makes me thing of Thanksgiving, today I'm recommending Jonathan Franzen's The Corrections.

Happy Thanksgiving to you. I've got my turkey ready to go in the oven. A friend brought that cranberry recipe several years ago, and none of us are big cranberry eaters, so it didn't go ver real well.

We had a great NPR station in Alabama, but the one here stinks. Happy Thanksgiving!

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.
