September! What are you reading?

[Bugsy]

I'm thinking about choosing Lexicon when it's my turn to host book club . Do you guys think it would work for a setting like that? We seem to read a wide variety of stuff, and most of us are in health care (if that is even a factor to consider).

Bugsy, I'm going to let the others who have read Lexicon weigh in here. I'll be totally honest...I feel I really didn't "get it".

I finished The Husband's Secret by Liane Moriarty yesterday. I really liked it. Recommended.

Not sure what's up next on the pile. I do have Doctor Sleep but it's gigantic; not one I want to carry around the hockey rink all week.

Bugsy, I've never been in a book club, but I think there would definitely be discussion points for Lexicon. It was a very strange and interesting book.

Blush, I read that Gaiman book recently. It was OK.

Honestly, I'm not sure about Lexicon as a book club book. I really loved the book, but like Rowan said it is "heavy". I felt like it took a lot of thinking to read the book. It wasn't something I could just breeze through. I guess it depends on what type of readers are in your book club.

Hmm ok, thanks for your honesty, everyone. It sounds like it might not be the best option, but it could work. I'll keep thinking about it.
