The LIbrary Book

At book club I mentioned the The Library Book by Susan Orlean as recently published and getting great reviews.  There was another good review in the Sunday Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.  Here's a link:

And the listing on Amazon:

Perhaps it's a book we should read in the future.  I've downloaded it in audible form, so I'll let you know my thoughts after I finish it.

I only voted for one book, and it was the winner!  No surprise that it was To Kill a Mockingbird--one of our favorites.  Jean will be happy to see that Pride and Prejudice was in the top five.
