I would also like to suggest "Jurassic Park" as a book. It's been a very long time since I read it, and since Jurassic World came out, interest is growing again for that series. Not to mention, the audiobook version of the first Jurassic Park was just released in May.





As I mentioned a few weeks back, there is some interest in everyone reading a book so that we can discuss it as a group. I asked for some suggestions back at the beginning of July, and then I put together a list of possible books. Let me know if there is another title you'd like to see on the list. We'll take a poll to choose the book later this month.
Working list:
- Go Set a Watchman by Harper Lee, historical fiction
- Unforgettable: A Son, a Mother, and the Lessons of a Lifetime by Scott Simon, biography/memoir
- Blackout: Remembering the Things I Drank to Forget by Sarah Hepola, memoir
- The Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss, (epic) fantasy
- Reamde by Neal Stephenson, science fiction
- Watchmen by Alan Moore, graphic novel
I tried to cover most of the major genres. Please leave a comment if you have other suggestion, and I'll put a poll together.
