Wild Game was really a tough act to follow, but Gus and January's banter did make me laugh.

Our book club usually selects "Gus books" (literary fiction or non fiction), but this month we've chosen this specific "January book" (flagrant happy ending romance), and I'm looking forward to seeing what kind of discussion it stirs up.
