I read Mennonite in a Black Dress with book club a few years ago and we had a really hard time generating a good discussion on it, unfortunately. I haven't heard of that Amy Tan book and want to read Say Nothing of the Dog. It is on some list of favorites that I read a while ago and it sounded good.<br /><br />Currently I am reading Earth Hates Me by Ruby Karp, another YA nonfiction book. I am also trying to cram in The Book of Dust by Philip Pullman before it is due next week.
