I have a couple of suggestions for next the reading group.
When Borders was closing, I picked up a book called "Don't Shoot! I'm The
Guitar Man." I started reading it this afternoon and I want everyone to
read it. It is non fiction and the author is Buzzy Martin. It's about a guy
who teaches at risk youths to play the guitar and then is asked to teach
guitar to inmates at San Quentin. It is so interesting the effect that
prison life has on him and more interesting the effect he has on the
prisoners.
I would also like to read Away by Amy Bloom and The Namesake but I don't
feel like writing a summary. If we choose a classic, might I suggest, The
Grapes of Wrath or The Great Gatsby. I would also like everyone to consider
A Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel Garcia Marquez.
