Book club choice please help

[Chocolatefrenzy]

My turn to choose a book for book group HELP!,
Any suggestions for something amazing and bloody brilliant glady recieved,

Have been in a book club until recently- due to a move. We read "my sister the serial killer" and 'girl, woman, other". Liked both.

The last thing to burn by Will Dean
The one hundred years of Lenni and Margot by Marianne Cronin
Last one at the party by Bethany Clift
Girl A by Abigail Dean
Small pleasures by Clare Chambers
Sunburn by Laura Lippman
The girl with the louding voice by Abi Dare

Have a sample of my sister the serial killer on my kindle so will have a look at that. I'm halfway through American Dirt as that has amazing reviews but not enjoying it as much as I thought

The book thief 💖

The Rules of Civility

If you haven't read it already, Hamnet by Maggie O'Farrell was my last choice for book group.

The Storyteller by Jodi Picoult

'Where the crawdads sing' was a good book for our club. Loved by all and good discussion.

I enjoyed American Dirt. I thought The Girl with the Louding Voice was excellent and also really enjoyed Small Pleasures.

Other good books I have read recently which would be good as a book club read are:

The Offing by Benjamin Myers
Shuggie Bain by Douglas Stuart
Hamnet by Maggie O’Farrell
All the light we cannot see by Anthony Doerr
The Silence of the Girls by Pat Barker

I'm writing down all your suggestions so thank you, weve read Hamnet and the book thief (we've been going strong for 10 Years.)

Just read shuggie Bain for our book group, absolutely amazing. Other great book is educated.

Station Eleven
The Immortal Life of Henrietta lacks

Definitely Station 11. I love it.

The Turn of the Screw by Henry James or The Woman in Black by Susan Hill would be good choices for October.

They're bothe short, so maybe both of them to see how they compare.

Susan Hill's book is so, so much better than the awful film with the Harry Potter actor.

I would suggest
This Lovely City Louise Hare
Florence Adler Swims Forever Rachel Beanland
The Sealwoman's Gift Sally Magnusson
Daisy Jones and the Six Taylor Taylor Jenkins Reid.

This Tender Land by William Kent Krueger was my last book club one. Long but well worth it with loads of topics/themes for discussion.

Run by Ann Patchett, v good and a lot to discuss .

@TimeforaGandT we’ve done all those in our book group too 😂

Piranesi by Susanna Clarke, beautifully written, and several themes to discuss.

We had a great discussion around After the Party by Cressida Connolly

Books that provoked good discussion in my bookclub included

Three Hours - Rosemary Lipton
Girl with louding voice
Conclave - Robert Harris

Just finished Transcendent Kingdom by Yaa Gyasi. Great book and there are loads of good themes in it for discussion.

I was going to suggest The Storyteller by Jodi Picoult but someone has already suggested it so I will second that one.

Would also recommend Small Great Things and a newer one The Book of Two Ways again, both by Jodi Picoult.

I'm also struggling to get through American Dirt but persevering given the excellent reviews.

Another vote for Station Eleven.

Life After Life by Kate Atkinson went down well at our bookclub.
