Did you love The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society? Who didn’t, right?! Well, Real Simple magazine recently tackled this much-beloved work in their No-Obligation Book Club…
Here’s a link to the questions they posed to one of the authors. Their next selection is Julia Child’s My Life in France, which I’ve been meaning to read for months — this may move it up on my TBR list!
Here is a link to the “rules” of this No-Obligation Book Club from the website:
- Every month, a Real Simple editor chooses four great books.
- You get to vote on which should be read for that month.
- During the month, the editor will read along with you, posting her/his own insights about the book and guiding the discussion.
- You can chime in with your own comments or just follow along…no obligation. Nice, isn’t it? (FYI — you can subscribe in a Reader!!)
- Every month a different book will be featured―but you can always go back and comment on older discussions or previous books.
They’ve already tackled a few of my favorites with The Help, Racing in the Rain, and The Time-Traveler’s Wife…
Sounds fun, doesn’t it?!




How serendipitous! I just finished reading this for my own book club. Thank you for the links. I’ll enjoy the interview.
Oh – this is great! I will go check out the site right away. I have already read (and LOVED) The Help and The Art of Racing in the Rain, and I have wanted to read My Life in France for quite some time. Your post was perfect timing for me.
