Homer Public Library 15 in '16 discussion

I want to invite you all over to the 2017 Lit Lineup group. All the 2017 books are posted, so you can start making your list of what to read.

https://www.goodreads.com/group/show/...

You can keep posting books for 2016 on the library website until midnight on 12/31/16.
Happy New Year!
Teresa

Thanks for a great list this year, Theresa! Once again I've read books I probably would not have come across otherwise. I'm looking forward to more of that in 2017!

Yay! I'm excited about this year's list as well. It will be fun to compare notes.

I agree with Cathy... it's a great list! What I enjoy most about these "book reads" is that I get out of my typical reach for the same type of books - true adventure and try something new. Joining this group opens my world to many books I would not normally have even discovered, much less read and enjoyed. :-)

That's so nice to hear, Deb. It does the same for me. So far I've read Mink River and Hillbilly Elegy-- both in the "community" category. I really enjoyed both of them.

Sweet! I will have to add those two titles to my "want to read" list!

I'm part-way through Mink River right now and recommend it! That's a little dangerous to do when I haven't reached the ending but I'll take that chance. It's written with a very strong sense of place and characters and a unique narrative voice.
