Books our book club has read over the years.

An impressive list! Look at all the great titles.
Quite a few of our choices have become movies; some we discovered before Oprah did; and more than one of the authors have made repeat appearances on the book club list (Jane Urquhart, Tim Winton).

Fun to look back!

Listed alphabetically by title.
