The Book Snob

Welcome to my blog! It's all about one of my favorite things - reading.
I love to read and I love to talk about reading.

Books of 2011

 My Reading Life - Pat Conroy
What a fantastic book for anyone who is a "reader."  Conroy is so descriptive about the books that inspired him and his mother.  Fascinating!  Conroy says he can look back on himself as a youth and "believe that the reading of great books saved his life."


March ~ Geraldine Brooks
Mr. March, the absent father of the Little Women, as he goes off to war.  I read this for book club and it generated a ton of discussion about the Civil War and related issues.  Most of us really liked it.
