A proud malayali here .... Wow just wow after reading .. what a novel ...a heart throbbing narration ...not getting words to describe what felt after reading it
A proud Malayali here
Just finished reading after 17 hours plus here in TRINIDAD...still want more❤
Take your time, if you want to read a long book and it takes a long time its ok you dont have to finish it in a month. The most important thing is to read
❤
I agree. I made a commitment to read 20 pages of a book/day. Some days I read more, but I always read 20 pages and that seems to be a nice spot for me.
Took three days 😂
Agreed. I read the goldfinch in two parts. One at the start of the year, the other at the end of the year.
I agree. Many readers get so involved in reading this book, but try NOT to try to read nonstop. Take a day off, now and then, to fully digest each chapter. Each chapter is so rich that you don’t want to miss anything.
I'm ordering it! What an elegant and yet humble man.
❤
People are hating even when talking about reading and a bookclub. They cant let go of their hatred. Thanks Oprah for all you do to encourage us to read books .
Love is health and vitality💛 honestly when you have those bias races hateful people I can imagine their insides eroding because that's what hate does when you have love and joy omigod you're insides sing a new song
People enjoy hating, sadly...that's their loss.
I'm 20 hours into listening to this 30 hour book. It is a wonderful rendition of loving family, amazing wisecracks and Christianity in India. So glad I found it
Congratulations! Dr Abraham Varghese. Thank you Amma for sending me the link.
I can't wait to get my hands on this one. Cutting For Stone was incredible!
Gayle: people have lives...the book is too long. If your "life" doesn't include reading, you're not living!
It's hard for me to believe that Oprah, as an apparent avid reader, has never read other books by the same author bc she read one she liked ... until now.
Cutting for Stone, one of my favorite books! Can't wait to read his new one.
Top 3 books of all time is high praise!
This is why Gayle gets the big bucks. She's a great journalist and she offers direct access to the wonderful Oprah. ❤❤
❤
Gayle loves her friends Oprah and Harvey Weinstein ❤❤❤
That's her bestie!
So dislike this Sisters thingy...so I won't say anything.
I just finished reading this book, I got as a Christmas gift. It took almost two months to finish it. You have to pick up and read this book. Amazing, the Author has a special gift🙏 of writing.
Top 3 of Oprah books it must be very very good
Wow, I haven't read a book this long since " The Fountainhead" in college. I'm gonna wait until Oprah makes this one into a movie!
❤
Why wait?
Beautiful ! Thank you ! I love this book club stuff! Please keep posting more book stuff ! I’m always up for new books so thank you for this recommendation! I can’t wait to read it! I’m picking it up today !!
❤

I'm so excited for Oprah to read my book one day :)
So now I have to read the book!
Great news. 👍so proud of you!
So exited about the podcast. ❤
Awesome work!. A proud Mallu .
I just borrowed the ebook through my library. Looking forward to reading it. I’ve been following Oprah’s book club since she started it. I’ve never heard her talk about a book the way she spoke of this one. And I will also be reading Cutting for Stone.
I just got my copy, I can't wait to start it!!!
CUTTING FOR STONES .. one of the best books I have ever read .. I hv often ck'd to see a new book from him .. buying this RIGHT NOW!!!!!!
Wow I feel the same way! I have been waiting YEARS for him to publish another book since I read Cutting For Stone-one of my FAVORITES!
A truly amazing novel! A multi generational journey through the lives of a cast of Malayalam and British characters in India. The prose is translucent and evocative, the lives, loves, pain, adventures told with delicacy and compassion. It's not really magical realism, but there are touches of magic, like Baby Mol who can tell the future, that heighten the deliciousness of this book. Set in Kerala
Such a joy to witness this show and the love for good stories shining bright and beautiful ❤🎉❤
🙄🙄🙄
Thank you! This is great.
❤
Gayle asks the best questions😊
Can't wait until this books is available in Dutch
I read “ Cutting for stone “ . Amazing book ! În this moment I wait to be translated în my country the second book of mister Abraham Verghese 😍
Glad to hear 🎉🎉
. . . THERE IS NO ONE LIKE ME , " DECLARING THE END FROM THE BEGINNING , AND FROM THE ANCIENT TIMES THE THINGS THAT ARE NOT YET DONE . . . "
Wow, such accolades. I just began the book. ❤
I would say 'Cutting for Stones' should've been selected. Am Ethiopian and the author had depicted the lives & cultures of Ethiopia that mainstream media doesn't show. Thank you, Abraham Verges! I will definitely read this one, too.
❤
Thank you !
I will look for it about Ethiopia!!!
And this one as well !!!
Is Mr Vergehes an Ethiopian???
Thank you, I'll check it out
@@kardon4996he was born in Ethiopia to Indian parents
Beautiful discussion. Congratulations, Abraham.
Just started listening to the audiobook and it's been great thus far. It pulls you in right away.
Gayle, you really speak for a lot of us at times, that is the same thing I was thinking--that Oprah was thinking who she was going to cast. How about Duvernay the Director? I did not spell her name correctly but you know I am talking. I guess I can help you choose? Lol!
I think these two are soulmates!!! Maybe it's wierd, but like i see them together.
❤Excellent interview ❤
❤
Ms. Oprah will have you reading. The Secret Life of Bees .... a work bookclub selection. It was awesome, too !
I read that book also, an I loved it. Secret life of bees was a great book!
Great work
THANK YOU CBS MORNINGS YOU DA BEST
I am reading this book and I am 3/4 thru it. It is a very good book, I am thoroughly enjoying it.
thank you
This might just be my summer reading. How, or where could one submit books for your folks to read? I was a single mother looking for a way to make income to not struggle when books started coming to my dreams. I did not know how to write ,coupled with the financial inability to publish. I self published through Amazon and really would like for professionals to provide me with constructive criticism, and directives for future. I would like to get the rest of these books out of my head. Thank you in advance for even reading this.
I never had any interest in Oprah’s book club, but I’ll definitely be picking this one up day one! 👏
❤
Her book club is amazing, I've read some of the best books because of it. I just got my copy today and I'm excited to start reading it.
Brilliant. ❤
THIS IS MY FAVORITE MORNING SHOW!! THEY KEEP IT REAL AND MORE GENUINE THAN ALL THE OTHER AM SHOWS. LOVE YOU ALL ✨️💞✨️
Looking svelte, Ms Winfrey!
Beautiful ❤❤❤
String
A tendon left a melody looking for a melody that we love that those who tightened it to you
The hold this book had on me from the start…
Oh I love long books! Nothing sadder for me as when I’m nearing the end. 👏👏👏
That’s quite an endorsement from a great lady and business woman! Love it❤❤❤❤
Oh! That's awesome 🎉
It’s a good book.
The ending will
surprise you !
kudos to Oprah for not butchering the pronunciation of Varghese. 😅 - a fellow Varghese
I love the whiteboard

" THE " ART " OF PRINTING BEING STILL UNKNOWN . "

Has she ever recommended 'spare' ? Just Wondering!!!
Shocked she isn't reading Spare.
OPRAH WINFREY IS THE GREATEST
🙏🏿🌞🌞💛💛🌞💛💫💫💫
Microwave Oprah
It's an conservative World!!
BLESSINGS! HOLY! DR. ABRAHAM IS A LEVITICAL PRIEST! A SON OF MOSES! MY SWEET OPRAH IS A DAUGHTER OF JUDE THE APOSTLE: YOUNGEST BROTHER OF OUR LORD! HOPE ARISES WITH ST. JUDE & HIS DAUGHTER! Y-E-A-H! HOPELESS THINGS FIND NEW BEGINNINGS!
Oprah is well known for her interviews! Still waiting for another one of H&M 2.0. Meghan is something else.
I am as enthusiastic about the book as Oprah! So excellent!
. . . HIS LIFE PRESENTS A " LESSON " OF PRICELESS WORTH , AND
" DEVOTION " OF THIS SERVANT OF " CHRIST " MIGHT BE REFLECTED
IN THE " CHURCHES " OF TODAY . . .
😅😅😅 when did she become a therapist, a philosopher, because she only has a journalist degree. Lolol.
helloooooooooooo
👍
Gail: you talk too much. Mistakes too.
. . . FROM THAT DAY TO THE PRESENT THE KNOWLEDGE OF " GOD'S "
LAW HAS BEEN PRESERVED IN THE EARTH . " HIDDEN " IN SECRET PLACES , FAITHFUL SOULS WHO PAID IT " HONOR " THESE TRUTHS ,
AS PRESENTED , WILL DISTINGUISH THE WORK AT THE TIME OF HIS
" APPEARING . . . " " 2023 "
👍🏾🍷
So let me get this straight . You have 2.8 Billion dollars and you write a book explaining to us how to be happy ?
How come the name Varghese has become "Verghese " !
It's a Malayalam version of George..and all Indian names are spelt phonetically ..i can think of several more ways of spelling it .
. . . RUIN AND DESOLATION BOTH TO THE " BODY " AND " SOUL . . .
" WHAT WOULD HAVE BEEN THE RESULTS ? " . . . I THEREFORE KEPT QUIET , AND LEFT THE " WORD " TO RUN THROUGH THE " WORLD " ALONE . . . " 2023 "
???
. . . THE RIGHTEOUS DEAD WILL BE RAISED UNTIL AFTER THE JUDGEMENT AT WHICH THEY ARE " ACCOUNTED WORTHY " OF
" THE RESURRECTION OF LIFE . . . "
How come the other co-hosts don't have their lovers on as a regular guest?
Not interested in her any more.
So no one can’t tell Gail those Damm shack shack in her hands are annoying and unprofessional
BOYCOTT OPRAH, GAYLE AND CBS MORNING AHOW🤮
Gayle, allow someone else to speak..... 😅
Money opportunity for Oprah! 😂😂😂
🤣
Right. Because she's so poor. 😂😂😂😂😂
After interviewing Harry and hiś wife , I have no respect for this woman, she really showed the truth about what she is able to do for money.
Agreed. And to air that interview while Prince Philip was dying a d the Queen sick with cancer, was heartless. It has turned me off Oprah for good.
A distasteful interview is the least of Oprah’s depravity. Anyone who associates with rapists and pedos is sadistic person. She endorsed “John of god”. Tells ya everything
chile Oprah didnt read that book, she takes a fee for promo
I won't be reading any garbage she promotes. It was a miserable book with a very rotten ending.
Its sad oprah was made such a mockery of by a certain someone jmo
If a book has an Oprah sticker, I am not reading it. If she likes it, I can guess I will not.
