Book Clubs are super cool, no doubt about it. If you’re in one, first, lucky you. Second, it’s great fun to read and talk about a book that you might not choose if left to your own, TBR devices. Reading new books or a new author is how we, as avid readers, expand our minds, our feelings, and our senses of humor.

It’s the sense-of-humor thing that you and your fabulous Book Club are particularly going to love about Rich Leder’s books.

Yes, yes, there’s plenty of fast-paced action and crazy crime and heartfelt romance and emotionally engaging characters living through thrilling events in Rich’s books, but the binding spine throughout is Rich’s sharp, silly, satiric sense of humor. His colorful scene description. His sharply tuned dialogue. Rich will make you laugh. That part seems certain.

So choose a book and enjoy the ride. If outlandish, high-concept dark comedy is your thing, there are three books here you’ll fall hard for. If murder mystery with an amateur female sleuth at the wheel is your preference, the Kate McCall Crime Capers are calling your name.

Whichever Rich Leder book you choose to read and share with your club, you’re going to have a ball. That part also seems certain.
