Auchincloss, Louis. The Book Class
Hager, Jean. Sew Deadly.
Hunter, Catherine. The Dead of Midnight: a Mystery
Landvik, Lorna. Angry Housewives Eating Bob-bons
Meredith, D.R. Murder in Volume.
Monroe, Mary Alice. The Book Club
Rivera, Beatriz. Playing with Light
Santmyer, Helen Hooven. -- and Ladies of the Club

I realize there is already a very fine list of Books about Books posted by
Robin Youngerman in Sept., 2003. I'm looking for ONLY the theme of book and
reading groups as portrayed in fiction.

Off list, also, I would be interested in hearing from anyone who might be
interested in sharing a room at PLA in Seattle. I have a reservation at the
Roosevelt Hotel: checkin Weds., 2-25-04, checkout Sat., 2-28-04 (3 nights).
My HCPL colleague who was going to share the room with me had to cancel. (I
am very psyched about all the Readers' Advisory programs at PLA, including
Nancy Pearl's Book Lust program!) Please reply to [removed]@hcpl.net
