Lists of Bests: oaklandcubsfan's "Reading list for the (now defunct) Monday East Bay Book Club"

Send to Printer oaklandcubsfan's "Reading list for the (now defunct) Monday East Bay Book Club" This is the reading list from a very long-lived but now defunct book group that was based in Oakland and Berkeley, CA. I joined it upon moving here in 1996. It had been in existence since January 1994, and finally dissolved in mid-2003.
