More from my Book Club

I belong to a book club started by several ladies I work(ed) with. It is called Discriminating Women. I was a faithful attendee for several years, then I went back to school and couldn't keep up with classwork, social life, and reading a book from outside of my comfort genres. I had a list from one of the founding members, it was on a computer that crashed. Because of that I am posting the list of books that the Discriminating women have read. Now, hopefully that list will be safe from crashing computers, and maybe I'll get some of those missed books read. And I realize now that our next meeting will be our 10th Anniversary.

This post will probably be edited over a period of time as I look up books to add links. As I link them to the find libraries with copy pages in OCLC's Worldcat Beta, I will try to double check and correct typing and spelling and add authors where needed.
