Book Club Collaborations

I am fortunate to be a part of a book club of fabulous, fascinating women.  We gather monthly to share our thoughts about a chosen novel over delicious hors d'oeuvres and wine.  For our final meeting before we break for summer, I created a platter of cookies to reflect the novel of the month, Still Alice by Lisa Genova.  As you can see, butterflies were a recurring image throughout the novel, and so what better compliment than blue cookie butterflies to match?  I love this idea (hatched by the host of this month's meeting) of making a book club meeting extra special by adding a personalized touch.  There are millions of possibilities for novel/cookie collaborations.  Here are a few I can imagine would work well:

Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen

The Diving Bell and the Butterfly by Jean-Dominique Bauby

The Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monk Kidd
