 Crossing
to Safety
by Stegner, Wallace
"We love this book, and many of our book clubs have read it. There's so much
to talk about and characters that you feel you can touch. This is a book that
you can read at ages 20, 40, and 60; you will take something new away every time."
- Valerie Koehler, Blue Willow Bookshop, Houston, TX
 Geek
Love
by Dunn, Katherine
"One of my favorite books; I still recommend it to people all the time. To
this day, I have never read anything like it and I don't think I ever will. It
is fantastic, bizarre storytelling at it's finest." - Alie Rosenberg,
Brookline Booksmith, Brookline, MA
 To
Kill a Mockingbird
by Lee,
Harper
"Harper Lee crafted a perfect novel that transcended the printed page and
became part of the American cultural memory. The author wrote with a razor,
thinly slicing scenes, laying them bare with the most innocent, yet irresistibly
seductive, prose. To call it one of my favorite books is like calling oxygen
one of my favorite atmospheres." - Erik C. Barnum, Northshire Bookstore,
Manchester Center, VT
