In Woman's World, dated January 30, there is a section on page 6 called What to watch, read and do this week! These two new books are highlighted:
White Lies by Jayne Ann Krentz. This is supposed to be a psychic/paranormal thriller with some romance thrown in the mix.
The Castle in the Forest by Norman Mailer. This is a strange book. Apparently, the narrator of the book is the devil's top lieutenant. It is about Adolph Hitler's immediate family: his father, Alois, his mother, Klara, their relatives and his siblings. Mailer covers the period 1837 to 1903 which is the actual lifespan of Hitler's father, Alois.

Book Club Selections
Before Paris Hilton and Nicole Ritchie, there were Gwen Carpenter Roland and Calvin Voisin living the Simple Life in the Louisiana Swamp. For next month, we'll be discussing their story, Atchafalaya Houseboat: My years in the Louisiana Swamp.
For March the book selection is Under Orders by Dick Francis. I'm looking forward to that one since I have not read a Dick Francis book since high school.

Have you seen the ads for the movie, Notes on a Scandal? That movie is based on a book I read maybe three years ago titled, What Was She Thinking?: Notes on a Scandal: A Novel by Zoe Heller. READ MORE. Excellent storyline and very topical with all these recent arrests of female sexual predators in the classroom.
