This blog is for book lovers. Initially this blog focused on the books selected by members of the Okefenokee Book Club who used to meet in Waycross, Georgia. Now, it is about my reading interests. I will also continue to post any interesting information related to writers, libraries, and book clubs in general.

World's Most Infamous Family: The Bin Ladens
We read and discussed the book, Inside the Kingdom by Carmen bin Ladin, former sister- in-law to Osama, way back in Januray 2005. Carmen met her husband in the country where she was born and raised, Switzerland. The book was fascinating and gave a good description of her life in Saudi Arabia. Now I see, in the current issue of People magazine, that there is a new book out titled, The Bin Ladens: An Arabian Family in the American Century by Steve Coll. Amazon readers have rated it an overall 4.5 stars out of 5.
