Fly Away Home by Jennifer Weiner
This was August's book club book. I wasn't sure I was going to like it, because it again involved politics, but it wasn't a main focus and quickly got away from that side of things into the Mother's life. The mother gets very interested in all kinds of recipes and starts cooking many delicious dishes. I love when food gets involved in any book, described so that you can see it and hate that you can't taste it. Anyway, the story is written so that each new chapter switches to a different character like Jodi does. It was a good book to read, although I'm not sure how I feel about the ending.
The Best Laid Plans by Terry Fallis
I didn't think I was going to like this book, based on it surrounding politics. I was pleasantly surprised. The Old guy, Angus, is at times a hoot, and very lovable. His character made me enjoy the book. This was July's book club book.
Escape from the Holocaust by William & Paul Ruben
This book made me nauseous. It was interesting, and eye opening; horrific. Not for the faint of heart.
