Abecedarian. I was wondering; could you indulge us with a list of what you've read for the challenge so far and give us a thumbs up or down? I've been following your thread for a while and have followed many of the links and lists of recommendations from others but I was hoping you might...

of delicate, sensitive situation

This is a challenging one. Could you tell us a bit more about your group? Is it a church group? What age group?

The Girl in the Swing - Richard Adams. An erotic ghost story (by the author of Watership Down). Can't say enough about this book! I read it in about 36 hours. Very suspensful. Beautifully written.

About 24 bucks a month for DSL

No I don't think that it's necessary to read a companion book. I didn't and I was pretty young when I read it. However, I will concede that you may have a deeper understanding and perhaps, pick up on some of the subtle references if you do read one. Either way, it's a truly great book and you...
