Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lighting Thief by Rick Riodan
Choosen by Jamie Wilde West
Meeting held on (To Be Determined) at Jamie's House
Plan: I was thinking for those of you who still want to read Wicked, you are welcome too. We will still discuss Wicked along with The Lighting Thief and then watch The Lighting Thief DVD at the meeting for fun.
Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West by Gregory Maguire
September's Book Choice
Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West by Gregory MaguireChoosen by Jamie Wilde West
Meeting held on (To Be Determined) at Jamie's House
Editor's Note - I'm sorry for the book change. I started reading Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West by Gregory Maguire and I found the language to be a little rough and graphic, I was afraid of another "Peyton Place" incident. But, for those of you who still would like to read the book this month instead of t...he Percy Jackson book you are more than welcome too and we can still discussing in this month's meeting. I'm still reading Wicked too. We all agreed to read The Lighting Thief at last week's Book Club Meeting.
Thanks for Understanding!!!!

****Facebook Discussion****
Jamie Wilde West This book was kind to a trial for me. I usually get the audiobook version....but in this case there wasn't an audiobook version available. With the audiobook I can listen to it while I drive in my long commute to Salt Lake City to work, while cleaning house or doing something. This, I had to sit and read..... it was quite a struggle.
Anyway, I loved the book.....the story how the main character juggled being a FBI Agent and a Mormon Bishop was great. I know of a couple of great men in my ward that work in the Criminal Justice Field and they serve neat callings in the Church. One is a Highway Patrol Man and the other is a Lawyer.......I couldn't help but think what kind of things these great men are exposed to in their field. Always witnessing someone broking the law or in the Lawyer's case defending the criminal's case. In Agent Bishop, the Author also talk about how his wife supported him in being a Bishop and a FBI Agent. With those men in my ward, they are married to some awesome women that I look up to who support their husbands in their career and their callings in the Church.
Life of Pi by Yann Martel
