Great Paperbacks for Book Clubs: Week of April 7
Do you recommend selections to book clubs? You might share this review of Mind of Winter by Laura Kasischke for those who like to tackle new hardcover releases. In the review, Brian Seemann writes, “It’s the sort of book that culminates with a finale that will have readers scrambling back through the pages, reliving the maddening Christmas day Kasischke puts her protagonist through.”
