If I grew up with a dysfunctional family, I would eventually start a book club.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I love books about dysfunctional families.
Book clubs are the best thing that has happened to the world of publishing.
My mother had a book club that would dissolve into opening wine.
I'd always liked to read, but when I picked up books I wasn't getting the same kind of excitement from them that I was from going out clubbing. I wanted to get the same kind of feel.
I have thought you could not give everything to your books and also to your children, so for a long time, I thought if I had a child or a family, I'd think, 'How would I support them?' because basically I would stop writing.
If I was a book, I would like to be a library book, so I would be taken home by all different sorts of kids.
I have this book club, and we don't read one book; we offer up a few suggestions and create a library over time.
I grew up in a house with very few books.
I grew up in a completely bookless household. It was my father's boast that he had never read a book from end to end.
I grew up in a dysfunctional family.
