We are seven handsome and charming* guys who meet at a different restaurant every month or so, having read a book in common, and discuss whatever we want--generally the assigned book, but usually many other timely topics as well. We rotate the responsibility to suggest titles, but the group has the final say. Our book club rules: 1) Anything goes, fiction or nonfiction; 2) paperbacks are preferred; and 3) staying under 300 pages is desirable (N.B., we violate this one all the time). We rate all books and restaurants on a 5-point scale.

* All other adjectives were vetoed.

A Woman in Berlin by Anonymous (JP American Bistro)

Six thumbs up for this month's book, A Woman in Berlin, an anonymous, frank account of the immediate aftermath of the fall of Berlin in 1945. JP American Bistro proved to be a very popular dinner spot. The next book is Mark Haddon's Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time (May 30).
