We have a winner! By the way I am hunting everyone down who didn't vote for A Tree Grows in Brooklyn...I am so bumed that my subliminal messages did not work! LOL


okay our book is....


Alice Hoffman "The Ice Queen"


Product Description:
From the bestselling author of Practical Magic, a miraculous, enthralling tale of a woman who is struck by lightning, and finds her frozen heart is suddenly burning. Be careful what you wish for. A small town librarian lives a quiet life without much excitement. One day, she mutters an idle wish and, while standing in her house, is struck by lightning. But instead of ending her life, this cataclysmic event sparks it into a new beginning. She goes in search of Lazarus Jones, a fellow survivor who was struck dead, then simply got up and walked away. Perhaps this stranger who has seen death face to face can teach her to live without fear. When she finds him, he is her opposite, a burning man whose breath can boil water and whose touch scorches. As an obsessive love affair begins between them, both are forced to hide their most dangerous secrets--what turned one to ice and the other to fire. A magical story of passion, loss, and renewal, THE ICE QUEEN is Alice Hoffman at her electrifying best.


We will give everyone until next Monday to find the book. Book club discussions will happen in the member to member section so keep a look out for those. The first post will be on finding the book so let us know when you have it or if you need help finding it! I can't wait to read with you all!
