Coming Together Over a Book
On Wednesday evening I had the pleasure of seeing Jeannette Walls, the author of the mega-bestselling memoir The Glass Castle, talk about her new book, Half Broke Horses, which is just in stores this week. Before she spoke, I was invited backstage along with members of the Clinton Book Shop book club to meet her; the store was sponsoring the event. We all had read The Glass Castle and thus dropped into a conversation with Jeannette almost at mid-sentence. Each of us had different parts of the book that had resonated with us, and, though I knew none of these other women, I found myself chatting with them like we were old friends with our only bond being a book we all had read. As we shared our observations, I tried to imagine what it must be like for Jeannette to have moments like this all the time when people are talking about your work, which actually is your life.

As you may remember, I did not read The Glass Castle until May of this year. It was a book that I had book guilt about. When I mentioned I had not read it around my uber reading friends, there would be gasps and people would say, "I cannot believe YOU (okay perhaps it was my emphasis hearing the word 'you' inflected louder than usual because of my guilt) have not read it." Once I did, I could see why people were eager to talk about it. I have started Half Broke Horses, and have already noted that Jeannette is a wonderful storyteller. She writes prose that is wonderfully descriptive and full of emotion. The combination makes her writing so compelling. Half Broke Horses is the story of her mother and her grandmother, and it is described as "true-life novel." She was able to talk to her mom about her story, but for her grandmother she needed to imagine more parts than she was comfortable writing as a nonfiction. Here’s a video that will give you some insight into the book.

Seeing a book like this prompts us to ask, “What book led to the best discussion your group ever had?” You can name up to three since one might not be easy. Send your replies to Shannon McKenna Schmidt at [email protected], and we will share your replies next month.

October is National Reading Group Month, and with that in mind we have two lists that you might want to check out. The first, The Fall 2009/Winter 2010 Indie Next List for Reading Groups, has been pulled together by the independent bookseller folks at IndieBound.org, and you will see that many of their favorites are titles that we have featured here. Also, we have a list from the Women's National Book Association (WNBA), who are hosting a series of events across the country to celebrate the third annual National Reading Group Month. Click here to read more about the stellar programming that the WNBA has pulled together to celebrate National Reading Group Month! Reading the list of authors who will be appearing makes me want to take time to fly around the country and catch each and every event.

October is also National Breast Cancer Awareness Month --- and thus there are many things pink all over town. Years ago I heard Kristin Hannah give a talk about how she had started writing back when her mom was ill with breast cancer while Kristin was in her third year of law school. They collaborated on what she called "the worst, most clichéd historical romance ever written." After her mom's death, she went on to become a lawyer and did not start writing until years later when she was pregnant with her son and confined to bed rest. She realized that her mom had been right all along; she was destined to be a writer. She walked away from her law career and started writing.

Through the years, when I have spoken with Kristin, she had shared stories about her mom, and it was clear she really missed her. To honor her mom --- and all the other women who have lost their lives to breast cancer --- Kristin has created a tribute wall on her website --- and the Firefly Fund to which you can donate will go towards The Fight against inflammatory breast cancer (IBC). Click here to visit Kristin’s website and learn more about this cause. There's a great back story as to how the Firefly Fund got its name. Readers really can make a special community.

Last year I read Thin is the New Happy by Valerie Frankel, which is her memoir about her battle with body image since age 8. I had the pleasure of working with Val at Mademoiselle --- where I loved her smart writing and editing. For the record, she nails what it was like to work on a staff where it seemed everyone was on a never-ending diet. I felt like a moose working there where everyone was size 0, 2 or dieting at 4. I do look back at those pictures, and think I looked pretty good back then. Maybe at 75 I will look good now too! We have the guide for the book this month.

Also, hot off the press we have a discussion guide for The Lost Symbol...you know, that book you might have heard about by that guy, Dan Brown.

It's been fun to see the list of our fans on our Facebook fan page growing in number. I enjoy seeing your pictures and reading your comments when I visit the pages there. The blog posts are uploaded there every day along with little tidbits we hear that might be of interest to you and your group. We also have a fan page for Bookreporter.com where we post news about books, including links to author television appearances and videos we think you might enjoy seeing. If you are not on Facebook, the Bookreporter.com Blog has a recap of what we posted each Friday. It’s our way to share the bookish chatter that we are hearing and gives me a chance to share what I am seeing when I am on the road.

Speaking of our blogs, don't forget that we are consistently featuring some really great pieces on the ReadingGroupGuides.com Blog written by authors, book club facilitators, booksellers, librarians and members of the publishing industry.

-Jamie Ford, author of Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet, shares his top 10 memorable moments in speaking with book clubs.

-Kathleen Kent, author of The Heretic's Daughter, discusses the challenges of her characters and how they relate to women today.

-Michael Mewshaw reveals the unusual circumstances that led him to write his 11th novel, Lying with the Dead.

-Home Safe author Elizabeth Berg proves that sometimes two is the magic number as she recalls weekly phone conversations she had with a long-distance friend about books.

And those are only a sampling of this month's outstanding posts. Read more here now.

Since this event is happening before we will be back to you with a newsletter in November, please note that Publishers Weekly has launched National Bookstore Day to celebrate bookselling and the vibrant culture of bookstores. It’s Saturday, November 7th. May we suggest that you take a list of books that you want to read and head to the store that day to shop?

We are featuring a new book club interview with "The Church on the Bayou Book Groups" in Tarpon Springs, FL, as well as an interview with a bookseller and book club coordinator from Barnes & Noble in Amherst, NY. I really enjoy reading these and learning about reading groups across the country. This month's newsletter contest book is Have a Little Faith by Mitch Albom. To be a group to win 20 free copies of this book, all you have to do is sign up for the ReadingGroupGuides.com newsletter by November 1, 2009. If you are receiving this newsletter in your mailbox, you already are signed up! You may find more details on how to be eligible here.

Lots of good reading this month....perhaps you will discover some titles for personal reading, as well as for discussions with your book club.

Here’s to a very colorful fall wherever you are.

The Longest Trip Home tells the story of Grogan’s coming of age with his trademark humor and affection, offering readers a chance to discuss their own upbringings, whether happy, broken or humorous, and what it means to return back to your parents and family after breaking away and claiming your place in the world.

Soon she is seduced by the glamour and passion among a certain jet-set elite, and reforming old relationships --- one of them of the most dangerous kind. The mystery of her inheritance eventually catches up with Cassia, presenting even more questions about her family and the rest of her life. Too soon the windfall, part benign influence, part brutal force, is an absolutely powerful entity all of its own --- one that Cassia cannot resist...

Thirsty offers a multi-dimensional plot that examines the plight of human frailty in stark contrast to the strength and power of the supernatural.
