I'm very excited for book club this year. We are reading so many great books. So far we've read "The Fault in Our Stars" by John Green, which is absolutely fabulous. I had read it before and suggested we take the time to read it this year. It is a romantic novel with comedic elements and a lot of serious issues, but I think it's a great read for teens. Most people in the club weren't as crazy about this novel as I was, but I think it really allowed people to venture outside of their comfort zone.
What I really enjoy about book club is that there is such a variety of different people, and everyone is so dedicated to reading, we'll try just about anything. We have a huge mix of books this year, including sic-fi, short stories, poetry,WWII novels, and American classics. Being part of a club, that truly allows me to express my interests and thoughts, has been amazing. We've assembled a great group of people this year, and I can't wait to share more reading experiences with them. Next up - Jack Kerouac's "On the Road".
