Attention Book Groups

Ann Patchett's latest book, State of Wonder is now available as a Book Group to Go bag.  A researcher at a pharmaceutical company, Marina Singh, journeys into the heart of the Amazonian delta to check on a field team that has been silent for two years -- a dangerous assignment that forces Marina to confront the ghosts of her past.  In a narrative replete with poison arrows, devouring snakes, scientific miracles, and spiritual transformations, State of Wonder presents a world of stunning surprise and danger, rich in emotional resonance and moral complexity.

Waiting for Ann Patchett?

While all you die-hard fan-types are waiting around for your reserved copy of Ann Patchett's latest, State of Wonder, why not take a spin with some of the books that she has put on her favorite books list?

The Daily Beast is currently featuring a short article by Ann Patchett herself listing "six books I've read in the last 12 months that I wish I was still reading." Is it even possible to ask for a better book recommendation than that?

I seriously think not.
