I wrote this novel and will be in dc in two weeks for a reading. If the timing worked, I could talk to your group about north korea.

Our last few have been:


State of Wonder (loved it except for ending)
Alice I have been (I didn't like it but most did)
Cutting for Stone (loved it)
Tiger's Wife (enjoyed it - most didn't)
Those Who Save Us (loved it)
Mists of Avalon (really interesting until page 900 - could have done without the last 100 pages)

We're about to do Hunger Games as a break after Mists.

Last month it was Chardonnay. I think this month we might be upgrading to Pinot Grigio.

It's my turn to select and I would appreciate any ideas.

We're currently reading Katherine Boo's "Behind the Beautiful Flowers: Life, Death and Hope in a Mumbai Undercity".
