Cedar’s comments from the Cedar Falls Public Library group.

We'll be discussing Books made into movies in January.
In February we'll discuss nonfiction and in March we'll discuss "My name is Mary Sutter" and All Iowa reads.

Throughout the month of November we are going to discuss suspense fiction. Below is a list of suggestions to get everyone started, but please don't feel limited to this list.

Before I Go To Sleep
Gone Girl
Cartwheel
Elizabeth Is Missing
The Husband's Secret
Defending Jacob

The 2015 All Iowa Reads book was announced last week. It is My Name is Mary Sutter. It is a historical fiction. "Mary Sutter is a brilliant, headstrong midwife from Albany, New York, who dreams of becoming a surgeon. Determined to overcome the prejudices against women in medicine— and eager to run away from her recent heartbreak—Mary leaves home and travels to Washington, D.C. to help tend the legions of Civil War wounded". The library will be purchasing some copies for the Book Club shelf. Has anyone read it?

I was so happy to hear that the Friends sponsored book discussion group decided to read it. I haven't loved a book that much in a while.
