This is really fun but.....
I feel so inadequate. I still need help from my children with Facebook and now this! Annie, you are a gem for creating this and I hope to get some lessons from you or Peg on how to post interesting information like everyone else has. I'm not worthy......
Well I just finished Revenge of the Spellmans, the third in the series by Lisa Lutz (and I am crossing my fingers that a fourth is in the works). I LOVED it . I owe Andrea a huge thank you for picking the first one for us to read. So if any of you are in the market for a good, I will even say great summer read, this is it. Lutz is even in talks with Paramount pictures to make The Spellman Files a movie. That is definitely one this bookclubber will be first in line to see.

The G Free Diet Book
No, Elisabeth Hasselbeck is not a member of our book club. But she has written a book. I wonder what celebrity of 14 hours has NOT written a book? She seems to me to be a pseudo-celebrity, having parleighed her being a cast member of the SURVIVOR TV Show into a gig on The View. Sounds like she is the epitome of "being in the right place at the right time"...
So, one day she was thinking, "I'm a celebrity...I wonder what kind of book I should write?" and she came up with a book talking about her Celiac Disease! But when I read the title about being G-Free, other images came to mind about what the "G" stood for and GLUTEN was not in the top 10......why would any woman want to be G-FREE?
I would think that there are so many other subjects she could have chosen:
"How to Get Along With Your View-Mates Using a Rosie Outlook"
"Living With a Second String Quarterback is My First String Love"
"How I "Survived" Being a Republican During The Election Campaign on The View"
"How to Avoid the Compulsion to Kill Your Co-Host"
Back to her real book - bottom line...I don't want this on the book list for anytime sooner or later.
But I know I am just one vote.
