Latest Lists

Has any else read any books from Oprah's Book Club?

I have read about 7 of them and have a list of many others from her book club I would like to read. Just curious. What books have you read? I usually get mine from McKay's, a used book store they are about $1-$2 per book and you can return them for credit towards other books or money.

1. I have read books that were later added to her list like The Grapes of Wrath.
2. So far I just read Night and The Grapes of Wrath.
3. I read "A Lesson Before Dying", only for a school assignment though.
4. I love a Lesson Before Dying! also, i only have read, Night. Great book!
5. Is The Glass Castle one of them? If not, it ought to be. It was amazing! I thought I grew up in a dysfunctional family, but mine was positively mundane by comparison. I loaned it to a friend or I'd tell you who wrote it. Can't believe I forgot the author. She's a writer for MSNBC.
6. I have read The Color Purple, Night, The Pilots Wife, and I am sure I have read others. I don't keep up with her book club, but I have noticed the stickers on some books that are on her list. Good reads. I get some of my books from half.com, because the price is decent and they always have what I am looking for.
7. I think I have only read one book from her book club, A Million Little Pieces by James Frey. It was a really great read, even though there was controversy over it since it was more fictitious than people thought it was. I want to read a lot of the books from her list though.
8. I read Anna Karenina, and found I loved it, but I didn't make an effort to read any others, preferring to choose my own books out of my personal favourite genres.
