The next book

Last night at book club we discussed The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini. I know I've mentioned before how much I enjoyed it. I was definitely not alone. Everyone in our book club gave it a big two thumbs up. Unfortunately we did not have our discussion over a fondue dinner as planned because the sports club restaurant is no longer serving it (it's a seasonal thing for them). Next in line for book club: The Professor and the Madman which is about the making of the Oxford English Dictionary. I've never heard of it and don't know what to expect...
