Our Review...

December's book choice "a visit from the goon squad" by Jennifer Egan was selected by Anne.  It was the 2011 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction Winner and has been described by some as a novel and by others as a collection of short stories. Many of the 13 chapters were originally published in The New Yorker and Harper's as short stories.

Those of us who read it really enjoyed it although it was agreed that it may not be a book choice for everyone. Anne had read it the previous year and reread it this month. She enjoyed it even more the second time around. All agreed it was a book that should be read over a short period of time as the stories are linked but shift back and forth in time.
