A Year of Reading: A Month-By-Month Guide to Classics and Crowd-Pleasers for You and Your Book Group - Page 16

This list is taken from Elisabeth Ellington and Jane Freimiller's 2002 guide to literature. Each month is broken down into five categories (Crowd-Pleaser, Classic, Challenge, Memoir, and Potluck) and includes discussion questions for each book. This list includes the main books for each category as well as other books by those authors and read-a-likes.
