'Tis the fall, the FALL OF GIANTS by Ken Follett that is as the author returns with a project every bit as epic, ambitious and large (literally and figuratively) as his beloved bestseller THE PILLARS OF THE EARTH. FALL OF GIANTS, the first book in Follett's planned Century trilogy hit shelves this week, but wasn't the universal No. 1 you might assume.

April Lindner, author of the debut novel JANE, tells Teenreads all about hearing voices. Not those kind of voices --- the kind that come from her characters. JANE is a modern take on the famous JANE EYRE, and after you've finished reading Lindner's post you will see the trailer for JANE. Enjoy!

I don't why I'm so full of questions this week... I guess it's because I think sometimes the best ideas we get here at RGG are from you... our readers.

If You Ask Me...: Sid from Centennial, CO, Jaela from Cincinnati, OH, and Darnnel from St. Louis, MO
Join us for another round of If You Ask Me! Today we'll be featuring responses from Sid from Centennial, CO, Jaela from Cincinnati, OH, and Darnnel from St. Louis, MO.
As individuals, of course, we are all 100% perfect. But I think we can all acknowldedge that once you put a bunch of us together in a group things automatically get less perfect. And as smart and wonderful as all of our book club members are, there are bound to be things that drive you a little crazy.
So today, my question is... if there was one thing you could change about your book club, what would it be?
Is the time of day or day of week not quite right for you?
Is there one person who takes over every discussion that just makes you crazy?
