 The Parkside Book Club in Coeur d'Alene met yesterday and we had a good discussion about Breaking Blue by Timothy Egan.  It was chosen partly because of CdA's close proximity to the settings in the book and also because Timothy Egan is a favorite author of many of the members including me.  I know WWBers also like him.  However, this particular book was not a favorite of mine.  I was in the minority - most of the other gals really liked it which is why I'm mentioning it.  The story is about an unsolved murder that happened in the 1930's.  The killer was a cop and cops don't rat out cops.  Eventually the truth came out due to a modern-day sheriff's graduate thesis work.

Two books were mentioned at the end of our meeting:  

Healing Wounds:  A Vietnam War Combat Nurse's Fight to Win Women a Place of Honor in Washington D.C. by Diane Carlson Evans

Mika in Real Life:  A Good Morning America Book Club Pick  by Emiko Jean

Happy Reading!  I miss you.
