SUMMARY:Walnut Public Library Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Romantic Comedy by Curtis Sittenfeld\n\nSally Milz is a sketch writer for “The Night Owls\,” the late-night live comedy show that airs each Saturday. With a couple of heartbreaks under her belt\, she’s long abandoned the search for love\, settling instead for the occasional hook-up\, career success\, and a close relationship with her stepfather to round out a satisfying life.\n\nBut when Sally’s friend and fellow writer Danny Horst begins dating Annabel\, a glamorous actor who guest-hosted the show\, he joins the not-so-exclusive group of talented but average-looking and even dorky men at the show—and in society at large—who’ve gotten romantically involved with incredibly beautiful and accomplished women. Sally channels her annoyance into a sketch called the “Danny Horst Rule\,” poking fun at this phenomenon while underscoring how unlikely it is that the reverse would ever happen for a woman.\n\nEnter Noah Brewster\, a pop music sensation with a reputation for dating models\, who signed on as both host and musical guest for this week’s show. Dazzled by his charms\, Sally hits it off with Noah instantly\, and as they collaborate on one sketch after another\, she begins to wonder whether there might actually be sparks flying. But this isn’t a romantic comedy; it’s real life. And in real life\, someone like him would never date someone like her…right?\n\nWith her keen observations and trademark ability to bring complex women to life on the page\, Sittenfeld explores the neurosis-inducing and heart-fluttering wonder of love\, while slyly dissecting the social rituals of romance and gender relations in the modern age.

SUMMARY:Walnut Public Library Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Most Dangerous: Daniel Ellsberg and the Secret History of the Vietnam War by Steve Sheinkin\n\nIn 1964\, Daniel Ellsberg was a U.S. government analyst\, helping to plan a war in Vietnam. It was the height of the Cold War\, and the government would do anything to stop the spread of communism―with or without the consent of the American people.\n\nAs the fighting in Vietnam escalated\, Ellsberg turned against the war. He had access a top-secret government report known as the Pentagon Papers\, and he knew it could blow the lid off of years of government lies. But did he have the right to expose decades of presidential secrets? And what would happen to him if he did it?

SUMMARY:November Book Club
DESCRIPTION:This will be the Book Club’s Christmas Party. Bring a book for the Grab Bag Book Exchange. There will be no Book Club in December.\n\n~ The Twelve Dates of Christmas by Jenny Bayliss ~\n\nWhen it comes to relationships\, thirty-four-year-old Kate Turner is ready to say “Bah\, humbug.” The sleepy town of Blexford\, England\, isn’t exactly brimming with prospects\, and anyway\, Kate’s found fulfillment in her career as a designer\, and in her delicious side job baking for her old friend Matt’s neighborhood café. But then her best friend signs her up for a dating agency that promises to help singles find love before the holidays. Twenty-three days until Christmas. Twelve dates with twelve different men. The odds must finally be in her favor . . . right?\nYet with each new date more disastrous than the one before–and the whole town keeping tabs on her misadventures–Kate must remind herself that sometimes love\, like mistletoe\, shows up where it’s least expected. And maybe\, just maybe\, it’s been right under her nose all along. . .

SUMMARY:August Book Club
DESCRIPTION:The Circus Train by Amita Parikh \nWhen all is lost\, how do you find the courage to keep moving forward? \n1938. Lena Papadopoulos has never quite found her place within the circus\, even as the daughter of the extraordinary headlining illusionist\, Theo. Brilliant and curious\, Lena—who uses a wheelchair after a childhood bout with polio—yearns for the real-world magic of science and medicine\, her mind stronger than the limitations placed on her by society. Then her unconventional life takes an exciting turn when she rescues Alexandre\, an orphan with his own secrets and a mysterious past. \nAs World War II escalates around them\, their friendship blossoms into something deeper while Alexandre trains as the illusionist’s apprentice. But when Theo and Alexandre are arrested and made to perform in a town for Jews set up by the Nazis\, Lena is separated from everything she knows. Forced to make her own way\, Lena must confront her doubts and dare to believe in the impossible—herself.

SUMMARY:May Book Club
DESCRIPTION:In the opening pages of Jamie Ford’s stunning debut novel\, Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet\, Henry Lee comes upon a crowd gathered outside the Panama Hotel\, once the gateway to Seattle’s Japantown. It has been boarded up for decades\, but now the new owner has made an incredible discovery: the belongings of Japanese families\, left when they were rounded up and sent to internment camps during World War II. As Henry looks on\, the owner opens a Japanese parasol. \nThis simple act takes old Henry Lee back to the 1940s\, at the height of the war\, when young Henry’s world is a jumble of confusion and excitement\, and to his father\, who is obsessed with the war in China and having Henry grow up American. While “scholarshipping” at the exclusive Rainier Elementary\, where the white kids ignore him\, Henry meets Keiko Okabe\, a young Japanese American student. Amid the chaos of blackouts\, curfews\, and FBI raids\, Henry and Keiko forge a bond of friendship–and innocent love–that transcends the long-standing prejudices of their Old World ancestors. And after Keiko and her family are swept up in the evacuations to the internment camps\, she and Henry are left only with the hope that the war will end\, and that their promise to each other will be kept. \nForty years later\, Henry Lee is certain that the parasol belonged to Keiko. In the hotel’s dark dusty basement he begins looking for signs of the Okabe family’s belongings and for a long-lost object whose value he cannot begin to measure. Now a widower\, Henry is still trying to find his voice–words that might explain the actions of his nationalistic father; words that might bridge the gap between him and his modern\, Chinese American son; words that might help him confront the choices he made many years ago. \nSet during one of the most conflicted and volatile times in American history\, Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet is an extraordinary story of commitment and enduring hope. In Henry and Keiko\, Jamie Ford has created an unforgettable duo whose story teaches us of the power of forgiveness and the human heart.

SUMMARY:April Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Last summer\, Alice Ogilvie’s basketball-star boyfriend Steve dumped her. Then she disappeared for five days. She’s not talking\, so where she went and what happened to her is the biggest mystery in Castle Cove. Or it was\, at least. But now\, another one of Steve’s girlfriends has vanished: Brooke Donovan\, Alice’s ex–best friend. And it doesn’t look like Brooke will be coming back. . . \nEnter Iris Adams\, Alice’s tutor. Iris has her own reasons for wanting to disappear\, though unlike Alice\, she doesn’t have the money or the means. That could be changed by the hefty reward Brooke’s grandmother is offering to anyone who can share information about her granddaughter’s whereabouts. The police are convinced Steve is the culprit\, but Alice isn’t so sure\, and with Iris on her side\, she just might be able to prove her theory. \nIn order to get the reward and prove Steve’s innocence\, they need to figure out who killed Brooke Donovan. And luckily Alice has exactly what they need—the complete works of Agatha Christie. If there’s anyone that can teach the girls how to solve a mystery it’s the master herself. But the town of Castle Cove holds many secrets\, and Alice and Iris have no idea how much danger they’re about to walk into.
