A Trip to the Stars by Nicholas Christopher 

"A Trip to the Stars" begins in Manhattan when ten-year-old Loren is kidnapped from his young adoptive aunt, Mala, and over the next 15 years travels to realms both real and imaginary. Fusing imagination, scholarship, and suspense with remarkable narrative skill, Christopher creates an epic tale of love and destiny.

Grunt: The Curious Science of Humans at War
by Mary Roach

"America's funniest science writer" Washington Post) Mary Roach explores the science of keeping human beings intact, awake, sane, uninfected, and uninfested in the bizarre and extreme circumstances of war.

Our Travel Group:  
Elephant Complex: Travels in Sri Lanka by John Gimlette  

John Gimlette takes us from Sri Lanka's exuberant capital city of Colombo to the dry interior where more than 5,300 wild elephants congregate around its ancient reservoirs; from the Portuguese-built forts of cinnamon country to the tsunami-ravaged south-east.

Read or re-read a classic:
: Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy
Several of us in our Fiction book club decided we wanted to read and discuss Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy. I haven't read it since high school (this is Joy) and I'm looking forward to seeing what my adult self thinks of this book that I loved in high school. If you want an excuse to read or re-read a classic, you've got some time. We will meet to discuss on Wednesday, November 15th at 5 pm over happy hour at Kenichi's.    
Bustle recommends setting yourself " A Yearly Reading Challenge". 
 
The Guardian give us " Top 10 brothers and sisters in fiction".
 
Some authors you do not want to get on the wrong side of; "16 of Truman Capote's Fiercest Insults" from Mental Floss.  
 
Last, " Kazuo Ishiguro is This Year's Nobel Prize Winner for Literature"; this article from Flavorwire.
