Also, the October Midtown Book Group meeting is set for Wednesday from 8-10 p.m. at the Barnes & Noble/Georgia Tech at 5th & Spring streets. The group will be discussing The Snowman by Jo Nesbo:

"The Snowman, Norwegian author Jo Nesbø's U.S. debut, should please even the most die-hard Stieg Larsson fans. On the first day of snow, a child wakes up to find his mother has disappeared during the night. Outside, a snowman has appeared out of nowhere, the calling card of one of the most terrifying serial killers in recent fiction... Brilliantly crafted, this credible and dark page-turner fully fleshes out the characters, especially Hole, a hardened detective with sharp instincts and real heart."
