[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The Chosen by Chaim Potok. Read it recently for a book club. It was a snooze. Have no idea why it was a best seller, other than perhaps every Jewish person in American felt compelled to buy a copy. [/quote] Really? I loved it, though I preferred another Potok book - [b]My Name is Asher Lev[/b]. I am Jewish though. :) I hated Catcher in the Rye. What a whiner. [/quote] I LOVE this book (I'm not Jewish). I have a copy, still read it over and over. Previous mentions: I liked Secret Life of Bees, but just finished another of the author's books, The Mermaid Chair, and found it so boring. Eat Pray Snore- so pretentious and mindful of its image (just like the author!). I did like the movie though, so go figure. I generally like Jodi Picoult (and I like that she sets her stories in NH/VT). [/quote]
