Happy September: The Book Group Version of Happy New Year!

For many book groups, September is like saying Happy New Year since some of you take the summer off. We also know that many of you start your year of selections in September. So welcome back, and have we got a lineup for you!

September features one of the largest guide updates we’ve done recently with more than 40 new guides available this month, including Freedom, the much-anticipated new novel from Jonathan Franzen. We’re also featuring Her Daughter’s Dream by Francine Rivers, the conclusion to her two-book historical fiction epic that began earlier this year with Her Mother’s Hope. Francine really weaves together the mother-daughter relationships in a family over several decades against some major historical events. I read both books and enjoyed them enormously. I love that readers will be able to continue this story so quickly; love these books were published just six months apart.

This month we’re featuring Her Daughter’s Dream as our newsletter contest book. One lucky subscriber will win 20 copies of the book just for subscribing to the ReadingGroupGuides.com monthly newsletter. If you know someone who should be receiving our monthly newsletter, have them sign up here and they will automatically be entered to win the 20 copies. If that friend wins, we hope they share!

Another great title we’re featuring this month is Daphne Kalotay’s debut novel, Russian Winter, about a former ballerina in the renowned Bolshoi Ballet who begins auctioning her jewelry collection, a process that triggers a flood of memories of her career, romances, betrayals and Russia’s rich history. There’s lush historical detail and writing throughout, and from all I have read, this is a novel you can just get totally lost in. I have it on my stack to read. Daphne released a collection of short stories, Calamity and Other Stories, in 2006.

One more to add to your list is Carol Cassella’s Healer, which is my latest Bets On pick over on Bookreporter.com. Last fall, we featured Carol’s Oxygen as one of our registered reader contests and got such positive feedback from many of you. I read Healer earlier this spring and absolutely loved it. I’ve also been lucky to meet Carol during a trip to the Pacific Northwest earlier this year and when she recently visited New York City. Healer is in stores now. Also, be sure to check out August's Bets On picks: Stiltsville by Susanna Daniel and Rich Boy by Sharon Pomerantz. And please note that I already have a number of titles slated to add to my Bets On list for the rest of 2010 and into 2011!

I want to get Michael J. Sandel’s Justice: What’s the Right Thing to Do? on your radar. It’s not the typical book for us to spotlight here, but when I read it, I found myself thinking that book groups could spark some real conversation with this. Often when we see a controversial topic, we see what we view as “the right way.” Here, Sandel instead looks at many “right ways” to look at a question. If you really want to start a discussion in your group, this may be the title for you as it offers some very serious philosophical questions worthy of debate. The book is taken from Sandel’s class at Harvard, where it’s become so popular that alumni actually participate via webcast. Many of the classes are archived here as episodes. On November 7th at 5 PM EST, everyone will be able to participate in a special web event where you will be able to interact with Sandel and the others who are participating by voting on screen and other features. You can read more details here. Justice is now available in paperback, and could be a chance for your group to explore a very different book.

Our registered readers are eligible for three exclusive contests. One group will win books and a chat with Jeffrey Zaslow, author of the New York Times bestseller The Girls from Ames, about a group of friends who were born and raised in rural Ames, Iowa and remain just as close as they were then. Jeffrey is also the co-author of the New York Times No. 1 bestsellers The Last Lecture with Randy Pausch and Highest Duty: My Search for What Really Matters with Capt. Chesley B. Sullenberger. As an added bonus, the winning group will received signed copies of The Girls from Ames.

Three groups will win an author chat with Tatiana de Rosnay, author of A Secret Kept, as well as copies of the book. Tatiana scored a worldwide hit with Sarah’s Key, which really found an audience with book clubs. A Secret Kept, which will be in stores September 14th, is a family saga mystery that starts innocently enough with a brother and sister celebrating a 40th birthday. However, on the ride home from the party, a long-buried family secret comes to light that leads to a car crash and a series of strange occurrences for the siblings.

Our third contest for our registered readers is for Mindy Starns Clark’s Secrets of Harmony Grove. Fifteen groups will win copies of the book, which is about a bed-and-breakfast proprietor in a sleepy Amish town who finds herself under investigation by the FBI. Just as she pleads for innocence, the body of her ex-boyfriend is discovered on her property.

I spent 10 days on vacation around Labor Day on the Outer Banks and then at The Homestead in Hot Springs, VA once Hurricane Earl dropped in. I blogged about nine terrific books that I read. You can read that blog here; know that MANY will be excellent book club discussion books!

Our ReadingGroupGuides.com 10th Anniversary Contest ended, and we thank everyone who participated. We’re compiling the entries, titles and information, and promise to have a definitive list of Top 10 Discussion Books in the weeks to come. We’ll also be highlighting titles in various genres. It has been a lot of fun to see the different lists with a lot of familiar books and some we’re not familiar with at all. I know I’ve definitely marked a few titles to go do some homework about. We’ll also be picking 50 lucky winners to receive a $200 gift card to the store of their choice, or to donate the prize to a local library, school or charity. Keep your fingers crossed!

Last month we asked all of you: Does your book club ever take a group trip to see a movie that is based on a book? More than half responded that your groups do take a field trip to the movies for select titles. What a fun way to spend a meeting and then compare how the book was better! Our latest poll below asks: Has your book club ever read and discussed a Young Adult novel? I’m really excited to see the results here as more and more original, creative and just flat-out wonderful books are coming out of the Young Adult genre. Sure, they may be in that section in your store, but there’s just as much to enjoy as an adult. You can vote here. Also, for those of you in the mood to vote, we have a fun poll question running until September 24th on Bookreporter.com asking which author you would like to see on "Dancing with the Stars". Vote here!

Lastly, as I’ve mentioned in previous newsletters, we’re seriously considering launching a website for readers between the ages of 17 and 30 as we feel it’s an underserved market in the book world. We’re gathering and compiling as much data as possible to help us provide the best site possible. If you fall into this age range, or know an avid reader who does, we would greatly appreciate you sharing our CO-20 Survey.

Here’s to a great September of reading…and Happy New Year to our Jewish readers!

As Percy sees his rural refuge overrun by children, parents and teachers, he must reexamine the solitary life he has made in the three decades since the sudden death of his wife.

THE WAVE: In Pursuit of Rogues, Freaks, and Giants of the Ocean, by Susan Casey

From Susan Casey, bestselling author of The Devil’s Teeth, comes an astonishing book about colossal, ship-swallowing rogue waves and the surfers who seek them out. In this mesmerizing account, the exploits of Hamilton and his fellow surfers are juxtaposed against scientists’ urgent efforts to understand the destructive powers of waves --- from the tsunami that wiped out 250,000 people in the Pacific in 2004 to the 1,740-foot wave that recently leveled part of the Alaskan coast.

A Secret Kept by Tatiana de Rosnay --- Author Chat and Book Giveaway: Three groups will have the opportunity to chat with Tatiana de Rosnay and receive up to 10 copies of the book.

More about A Secret Kept:
It all began with a simple seaside vacation, a brother and sister recapturing their childhood. Antoine Rey thought he had the perfect surprise for his sister Mélanie’s birthday: a weekend by the sea at Noirmoutier Island, where the pair spent many happy childhood summers playing on the beach. It had been too long, Antoine thought, since they’d returned to the island --- over 30 years, since their mother died and the family holidays ceased. But the island’s haunting beauty triggers more than happy memories; it reminds Mélanie of something unexpected and deeply disturbing about their last island summer. When, on the drive home to Paris, she finally summons the courage to reveal what she knows to Antoine, her emotions overcome her and she loses control of the car.


The Girls from Ames by Jeffrey Zaslow --- Author Chat and Book Giveaway: One group will have the opportunity to chat with Jeffrey Zaslow and receive up to 15 signed copies of the book.

More about The Girls from Ames:
As children, they formed a special bond, growing up in the small town of Ames, Iowa. As young women, they moved to eight different states, yet they managed to maintain an extraordinary friendship that would carry them through college and careers, marriage and motherhood, dating and divorce, the death of a child, and the mysterious death of the 11th member of their group. Capturing their remarkable story, The Girls from Ames is a testament to the enduring, deep bonds of women as they experience life's challenges, and the power of friendship to overcome even the most daunting odds.


Secrets of Harmony Grove by Mindy Starns Clark --- Book Giveaway: Fifteen groups will have the opportunity to receive up to 10 copies of the book.

More about Secrets of Harmony Grove:
When New York marketing executive Samantha Collins finds herself unemployed, she moves out of her pricey Manhattan apartment to sleepy Harmony Grove, Pennsylvania. She plans on running the bed-and-breakfast she had bought as an investment in Lancaster County. However, when the manager she lets go is later found murdered on the property, Samantha’s troubles take a serious turn. A handsome local wishes to befriend her, but can she trust him? And when her ex-boyfriend shows up, wanting to reconcile, can she cope with him in the middle of this crisis? Samantha must learn to depend on the Savior she has recently taken into her heart. And she’ll need all the help she can get, because the secrets she uncovers in Harmony Grove threaten her livelihood, her safety, and ultimately her life.

Bookreporter.com Bets On: HEALER by Carol Cassella

Healer by Carol Cassella (September 7th): Carol Cassella, author of the brilliant debut novel Oxygen, returns with Healer. Those who already have fallen in love with her work will appreciate this stellar sophomore effort, while those who have not yet discovered her will want to pick up this one. Cassella, who is an anesthesiologist living in the Seattle area, again sets her book in Washington and takes readers inside the medical profession. This time she plunges us into the world of new drug testing --- and what a fascinating world that is with huge stakes on all sides.

Claire Boehning has “the perfect life” as her days are consumed with finding the right things for the house, shepherding her daughter Jory from event to event, and showing up at a whirl of social events to support her husband Addison’s biotech career. But when testing for a promising cancer drug falls apart, which her husband backed with all their capital, Claire’s world is abruptly changed.

The family is uprooted from their comfortable digs into the fixer-upper second home that they bought, where they will live as Addison tries to gather funding to start again. They face an economic downturn that shatters their world and pushes their familiar bonds to the breaking point. Claire, who never completed the board certification for her medical training, now finds herself working in a clinic that is short on dollars and long on lines of migrant worker patients. Jory is far from her friends and is acting out to show her displeasure with their new circumstances. And Addison travels to try to regain his position and raise new funding, trying to appear successful while his world is crumbling around him.

Cassella portrays an honest look at marriage and family when all bets are off and the familiar tethers are not there for support. And she does it brilliantly. At the same time, she’s developed a beautifully crafted suspenseful story where she does not burden her prose with wearisome medical facts, but rather weaves them seamlessly into the story. Thus it’s a truly satisfying read on many levels.
