Top 2 Book Club Choices

Strategies:
When picking out what book I want to read I usually first look at the back of the book and read the  summary or reviews. I also like looking at how many pages the book is. New strategies I have adapted are seeing how long the chapters are, how big the font is, and sometimes reading the first page of the book.

Book #1: the Hundred Secret Senses
I want to read this book the most because Im fascinated by the mystery involving ghosts and how she is Chinese. When I read the summary on the back I was really interested by the Chinese history because I don't know much of Chinese history and myths although I am full Chinese. I examined the length of the novel and it seemed pretty long although since it sounds interesting and the chapters are broken up nicely.

Book #2: Their Eyes Were Watching God
I found this book interesting because it has woman lead and I also have read many books related to slavery and life on plantations. I also liked how the chapters were decently dispersed and the book is short and easy to read. The font wasn't tiny either so it makes it easier to read.
