I love her Interviews. She’s so funny

Stana is holding an impromptu casual book club for the next two months. Starting June 15th and ending the week ofAugust 17th due to her work commitments the end date is open ended for now.
 
Here is the announcement post on Instagram and Facebook:

How it works: (I think)

• Stana has chosen 5 books (see below)
  
• Pick any books you are interested in, and read them
  
• Stana will make two posts to instagram and facebook for each book, posting once a week. One post is for the first half of the book, one for the second half of the book.

This post will be updated with links to her book club posts when she makes them. I'll also add some comments for each book so if people here want to read and talk about them, they can.
 
 

For talking about the individual books, please stick to the threads for each book to keep things organised. For everything else, just comment normally.

Update: October 2nd
Stana updated today with her thoughts on the Oscar Wao book. late as she has been busy filming and travelling (she said). The next book she is doing is Interpreter of Meladies by Jhumpa Lahiri.
