As my first book suggestion with this group, I would like to nominate Euphoria by Lily King.

It is a historical fiction/romance/anthropology related book and is under 300 pages. Great for summer. :)

I'd like to nominate

The Enchanted

I've read both of those, and they were both great! Really beautiful writing.

- for a new summer release

by Kazuo Ishiguro

Absolutely loved that book. One of my favourites of this year!

I'm going to nominate The Sacred Lies of Minnow Bly .

The Kevinian cult has taken everything from seventeen-year-old Minnow: twelve years of her life, her family, her ability to trust. And when she rebelled, they took away her hands, too.

Now their Prophet has been murdered and their camp set aflame, and it's clear that Minnow knows something—but she's not talking. As she languishes in juvenile detention, she struggles to un-learn everything she has been taught to believe, adjusting to a life behind bars and recounting the events that led up to her incarceration. But when an FBI detective approaches her about making a deal, Minnow sees she can have the freedom she always dreamed of—if she’s willing to part with the terrible secrets of her past.

Sounds like a great discussion book!

I nominate In the Unlikely Event by Judy Blume
