the plan for 2012

1. pick your book

2. write it in the comments

3. i will assign the month to each person

4. that person will then decide what they want to do for the meeting

5. the monthly book list will be located on the sidebar

6. if you have a specific month that you want, or don't want please write that in the comments as well

7. we will start in january

for december lets read A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens

sound good?

book club re-vamp

we need to breathe some life back into this club so i have a few ideas on how to improve or at least get us started again.

here are some thoughts on the choice of books:

1. we keep going with the same idea. one girl a month chooses a book

2. we each throw out a few suggestions on books and we assign a book to each month

what do you think about the meetings?

1. we keep going how we have been

2. we assign a specific day each month to meet. for example the 2nd tuesday.

3. each girl takes a month hosting.

4. we always meet in the same place - someones house, laie shopping center, an abandoned shack in the hills

what do you think? any other suggestions?

Book Group Tomorrow is Tomorrow!

Hi All-

Tomorrow is book group at my place. If you are coming, but don't know where I live, leave a comment and I"ll facebook you my address today. Stef- I just finished my copy- you could borrow it today or I'll give it to you tomorrow if you still want to read it.

Book Group Date

Let's meet Tuesday, August 30th at my house at 8:30 pm. We'll have some good eats.... maybe potato peel pie???

August Book Group

I've been wanting to read 'The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society' by Mary and Shaffer and Annie Barrows for quite some time. Its written in letter form, and is centered around a book group- quite appropriate, wouldn't you say?

I still have to figure out a date to meet, likely towards the end of the month, but I thought I'd post the book up here early so people can start reading. My friends who have recommended it all described it as 'delightful'.

Let's kill two birds with one stone shall we?

Book Club at my house Thursday July 28th at 9PM ok?

If you're not sure you can come... make it work! Hahaha Oh man that was good.

July Read

You don't even have to be a P&P fanatic to appreciate how shockingly enjoyable this book is.

But if you are a fanatic, like most of us are, then you might find yourself in the same state of pleasant surprise I did that this random guy got it so right and maybe even made the story all the more fabulous.

Nothing beats the original. Nothing. But I have to admit that this version gives a new perspective to the story that I couldn't get enough of.

I hope you enjoy it! I got my copy through the library system and I think they had to get it from another island so hurry and get on that if you don't want to buy a copy. I haven't checked BYUH though- they might have it.

We will meet at the end of the month like always and have fun.
