I just finished a great book the other day and wanted to share it. It is an Oprah's book club selection. I haven't read many of her books, but have since she started reviving classics.

The Heart is a Lonely Hunter
by Carson McCullers
ISBN 0-618-52641-2

It is a book about the goings on in a small southern town. Phenomenally written and you get a feel for each of the characters. This is a great read for both guys and girls!
