I love Book Club Girl. I find it amazing that a novel can be written about something someone sees out a window from her bed. I can't wait to read this.
I loved hearing where some of the inspirations for where The Girl in the Green Dress. Great interview! I also loved hearing about serials in the newspaper.

So awesome! I haven't read any of her books yet but this show made me re-think that. Tess sounds like an awesome character I would enjoy. I'm looking forward to her new book too. I looks like I have a new author to enjoy.
PS - Rear Window is a favorite movie of mine so I think her inspiration and plot of The Girl in the Green Raincoat sounds great!
I also was intrigued that it was based on rear window, makes me want to watch the movie again. I am looking forward to reading the new book!

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.

I enjoy the characters in Laura Lippman's novels since they are portrayed as real people, especially Tess Monaghan who is fascinating.

I learned that Laura based her book "The Girl in the Green Raincoat" on the movie "Rear Window". I thought that was very cool!
