What's everyone reading for this category?  I have been checking the lists thread, but not many are updated.  I was thinking of re-reading a very funny book The Devil In The Junior League, but thought maybe I should stretch out and read something new.  I am not in the mood for a heavy, tearjerker.  So, what is your selection for that category?

Carole this book was one of the books In the Book club, but it didnt win.  well, I ordered it anyway so maybe you could put it back on the list for later this year.  cause I want to read my copy too

The Devil In The Junior League,

Or I can add it.

You add it this time and I'll vote for it!!

Anyone else have a suggestion?

I read and really liked Best Friends Forever. I recommend it. Something I've just recently read  is Tom Perrota's The Leftovers  Perrota has been described as a satirist with a heart and I think that that's about right for this novel. He really specializes in writing about  life in the 'burbs and manages to nail the details in a kind of deadpan humor way. Even though this is supposedly a story of post-"Rapture" American life it is, really, not at all about religion. It's about coping with change and moving on. Very funny, sad and wonderful.

The Wednesday Sisters  by Meg Waite Clayton.   Five women who live in Palo Alto form a friendship that bonds them throughout their lives as the experience all the ups and downs that life can hand to them.  Nice change from heavier reads.  3 stars

If any of you have not read Angry Housewives Eating Bonbons , by Lorna Lanvik, you might enjoy this story of a group of women in a suburban neighborhood who form a monthly book club through which they become really good friends, and see one another through some of the tough spots in life.
