If you consider yourself something of a speed reader, here's a challenge: We have three book club meetings in a five-day period. Can you make it to one? Two? All three?

Here are the dates and details:

At 10:15 a.m. on Thursday, Feb. 23, our morning Coffee and Conversation book club is talking about the book "The Forgotten Garden" by Kate Morton. It's about a woman abandoned on a ship as a little girl who tries to discover her secret past.

At 11 a.m. on Saturday, Feb. 25, the recently formed Coffee and Classics book club will discuss Boris Pasternak's classic "Doctor Zhivago." A true Russian epic, it's packed with drama, intrigue and romance.

And at 7 p.m. on Monday, Feb. 27, the evening Coffee and Conversation book club is talking about the recent bestseller "Maine," by J. Courtney Sullivan. With four women, three generations, one summer cottage and a few family secrets, it's a real page turner.

Ready for the challenge? Better get reading!
