The Girl You Left Behind

We had such good luck with our first Fall 2013 read by Jojo Moyes that we absolutely must investigate another of this fantastic author's books.  So here we go with The Girl You Left Behind,a book promising to give us a storyline combining past and present, love and courage.  Shall we keep that Kleenex box handy this time, too? Without a doubt.

... thinking the timing of this book couldn't be better after that last one! Oh yeah.

Great fun for any reader who secretly sneaks peeks at People magazine in the checkout line at the grocery store, and wonders, What if...?

C'mon Ali, get us out of this reading funk.

Between You and Me

This next book was supposed to be a summer read, but what the heck, let's make it the second book in our Fall 2013 lineup.  The book is called Between You and Me and is written by Emma McLaughlin and Nicola Kraus. Sound a little familiar?  They should!  Also written by these fabulous authors are books we know such as The Nanny Diaries and Nanny Returns.

Me Before You

Our first read of Fall 2013 is from another author,  Jojo Moyes, who is new to the Chicken Lit Bookclub.  The book is called  Me Before You and was recommended to us via email from Book-A-Million. What exactly are we getting into here?  Well, from first glance at hundreds of reviews out there on the internet and beyond, looks like we had better get our Kleenex boxes ready - this could be a real tear jerker.

... and if we like this one, The Girl You Left Behind awaits our review. Bwah-haha!
