Time Traveler's Wife: The Sequel

I got this info verbatim from my friend Allison's site--can't wait for this book.
I propose it as our November book (if it's out by then). For those of you who haven't read The Time Traveler's Wife, DO IT NOW (you won't regret it)!!!!

Not a sequel, but Audrey Niffenegger, author of The Time Traveler's Wife, will have her second book out in the fall. It is titled Her Fearful Symmetry and according to this article it is "supernatural story about twins who inherit an apartment near a London cemetery and become embroiled in the lives of the building’s other residents and the ghost of their aunt, who left them the flat."

Shakespeare!


Here is the only known painting of Shakespeare completed during his lifetime!

I know it's not book club related, but still pretty interesting!
I'm almost done with The Post Birthday World and can't wait to see how it ends!!

Blog Virgin

I'm excited about another first experience - first book club and now my first blog posting! - maybe my pleasure over these two events gives you some insight into the placid nature of my life these days; but at any rate I'm grateful for a thrill of any kind. I hope it was as good for you as it was for me! I enjoyed our first discussion and I'm looking forward to seeing if my attempt at posting ends up on the blog page. I have to admit that I haven't started the Birthday Club book, but if I wait long enough it will save me from chores/housecleaning for the weekend before the 17th as I will just have to ignore those in order to finish the book. See you then --Meroe
