May's Adult Book Club Pick

Do you and your book group ever have trouble selecting your next read? Let Little Joe’s Books offer up some suggestions.

It’s spring time, which means it’s time to put down the heavy book you've been reading all winter and pick up something lighter.  Lighter doesn't mean you have to squelch on content – but how about something a little less Bring up the Bodies and little more interesting – like Meg Wolitzer’s ninth novel, The Interestings?

The Interestings
is sure to appeal to a variety of people, both for its nostalgic New England summer camp experiences, and for the insight that is doled out when we ask “where are those campers now?”   This is the story of Jules Jacobsen and what she discovered when she asked herself that exact question.

If you’re a fan of Jonathan Franzen or Jeffrey Eugenides, Meg Wolitzer will satisfy your needs.  Highly literary and incredibly readable, The Interestings will give you and your book club lots to discuss.
