| The top 10 Most Read Books in the World, based on the number of books printed and sold over the last 50 years. |
- I loved this book review of The Metropolis Case by Bonnie on List of Now; my favorite line? "What best characterized my experience reading this book was that it was fun. Really, really fun. The most fun I’ve had getting to know characters and go on their journey in a good while. I picked it up in the middle of some incredibly stressful weeks of my life and it was an absolutely delightful escape." Sounds like a great read for these cool Fall days!
- Speaking of books, I love these cute book club party ideas for food and decor, from Lesley on By the Porchlight; check out the adorable invitations she found on Pinterest. Her book club read Cutting For Stone, have you read it? I started it, and admittedly didn't get very far before I got distracted by something...I'll pick it up again soon.
