Book Club - March pick!

I was finishing reading a book I've be mulling over for quite some time now (and yes, I actually did force myself to finish it) and thought to myself... I wish I read more... and maybe different types of books, since I'm always attracted to one specific genre!

So I joined a book club!

Every month one of us is in charge of picking a book & a location to meet to discuss it there after!

Rules are:
1 - you can't have read the book before
2 - you have one month to complete the book
3 - we meet the first Monday of the last week of the month to discuss

March is my friend Ana's month!

She has chosen a book called Brick Lane by Monica Ali

Synopsis - Nazneen is forced to marry a man 20 yrs her senior in an arranged marriage who picks her up and moves to London. There she must learn to live in a diverse city with many cultural differences. She struggles to be the obedient wife and mother but soon falls into an affair with a younger man, and must choose between her old certainties and new chaos.

Seems interesting enough... although it's a bit hard to get into! Reviews have said the same, and that it is worth the read so let's hope it's a good one!

So Ana, your choice.... where we meeting up?!
