DCINB book club- (?)

Post by katied »

I just posted about a book called The Passage in the World War Z thread..It gave me an idea..what about we read a book-that we decide on-and read it, then discuss it in this thread. Don't know if anyone would be interested..it's just a thought! 8)

If there is interest we could make it a global thread to keep attention on it.

What kind of books Kaite? I want to read a Deaver novel some time soon to get a notion of the flavour.

Hmm, not sure. It'd be interesting to read a classic book-Hemingway or Steinbeck,perhaps?

I think we are going to do the first book of Stieg Larsson's Millennium Trilogy The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.

Anyone one else care to join in?

I suppose we can do this whenever you would like Katie. I want to make my review a little provocative, to see if we can get anyone else in on the discussion. My alterer motive will be because inevitably when the movie adaptation with Craig comes out we will be talking about the book.
