An article in this weeks Charlotte Observer shared what some of the area colleges are having new students read over the summer. Any of these titles would be good discussion books for book clubs.
Appalachian State - "Freakonomics" by Steven Levitt and Stephen Dubner
Davidson College - "The Dignity of Difference" by Jonathan Sacks
Furman University - "Blood Done Sign My Name" by Timothy Tyson
Queens University of Charlotte - "Balzac and the Little Chinese Seamstress" by Dai Sijie
UNC Chapel Hill - "The Namesake" by Jhumpa Lahiri
University of South Carolina - "Mountains Beyond Mountains" by Tracy Kidder
Wake Forest University - "An Enemy of the People" by Henrik Ibsen
