Happy 5th Birthday, Book Club!
September 6 was our birthday and I'm glad to say we're still going strong! We've read 9 books together in the past year, and 61 in total.
Ladies, it's been a pleasure and I'm so happy to be reading with you!

52 Pickup by Elmore Leonard
Elmore Leonard passed away last month, and I heard a lot of interesting stories about him on the radio. (oh dear, NPR has not been a good source of picks in the past)
Many of his works were adapted to cinema or tv, including Get Shorty, Jackie Brown, 3:10 to Yuma, Out of Sight, and Justified.
I chose this book because it had one of the highest average ratings on Goodreads. Bring on the blackmail!
