As per Diane’s Suggestions…

Diane suggested (in the comments) that the following would be good reads:

“The Blood of Flowers by Amirrezvani
The Pillars of the Earth by Follett
The Thirteenth Tale by Setterfield
And of course Eat, Pray, Love would be great.”

I picked up and quickly read The Blood of Flowers, which was quite the page turner! I have to admit that I am finding The Thirteenth Tale to be absolutely delicious and would love to suggest it as a fine contender for the book of the month! Finally, I’d personally like to avoid reading the Oprah Book Club books (of which her latest selection is The Pillars of the Earth) at the same that she and her loyal fans read them. Only because, well, it is her book club and I’d like our book club to do something a little different. We are THE San Francisco Book and Brunch Club and San Francisco has always been a bit notorious for doing things its own way! Let’s continue that great tradition!
