I recently started hanging around a book group, primarily because my favorite professor from college is also participating. I had explained that I was only reading new books this year (so I'd skipped their reading of the amazing & wonderful Middlesex by Jeffrey Eugenides, which I'd read years ago), and was thus nominated to propose a book for March.
From the books I put forth, Jennifer Egan's A Visit From the Goon Squad was the book chosen, and I'm so glad. Complicated, interesting, timely, musical, funny, bleak and smart. So pleased to have read it; so excited to discuss it with bright & engaged people!
