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!
