Anna reviews the popular book 'The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo'.

One for the Money by Janet Evanovich. This was another simple story that is stretched out into an entire book.

The book we're discussing is "Julie and Julia: 365 Days, 524 Recipes, 1 Tiny Apartment", written by Julie Powell. The book is about a New York temp worker who is turning 30 and decides to cook her way through Julia Child's cookbook, "Mastering the Art of French Cooking."

Dead Until Dark is the first of 9 Southern Vampire Novels written by Charlaine Harris. In this book, vampires have just *come out* to the world and are trying to assimilate into society. Sookie is a telepathic waitress who hooks up with vampire Bill. Yum.

After a 3 year break -- the book club is back! Anna talks about the changes to the book selection and introduces the first book.
