Week 3: The Readers' Services Conversation
Customer #1
I would suggest Wild: From Lost to Found on the Pacific Coast Trail by Cheryl Strayed. Like Eat, Pray, Love, it is a memoir about a woman's self-discovery after a difficult time in her life. There would be a lot for a book club to discuss after reading this.
Customer #2
I would suggest Soulless by Gail Carriger. Unlike Twilight, this vampire novel, the first in a series, is full of clever humor and supernatural action--in the first chapter a vampire upsets a tea tray and is killed by a parasol wielding woman with no soul.
Customer #3
I would suggest Destiny of the Republic: a Tale of Madness, Medicine and the Murder of a President by Candice Millard. Written by the same author as The River of Doubt, this book focuses on the assassination of President James A. Garfield. It is a similarly fascinating, fast paced historical read.
