(I've bolded the name of the person who chose the current book so we all know where we are on the list, and so the next person can start thinking what they want to pick ahead of time)

This month: The Book Thief by Marcus Zusak

I was going to suggest we read a certain number of chapters per week, but this book is divided into so many little weensy chapters that I'm not sure that will work in this case...so how about this (they're kinda sorta roughly even sections):
Week 1: Parts 1 & 2
Week 2: Parts 3, 4 & 5
Week 3: Parts 6, 7 & 8
Week 4: Parts 9 & 10

And finally...

I'm picking the book up at the library tonight after work.  I'm looking forward to reading it, my sister recommended it pretty highly!

It's loaded up on my kindle, but I haven't started yet.

I've got to get a copy.  Hmm...perhaps it's time I become acquainted with the local library?  I've been meaning to do so since we moved here.

i voted for ready - i'm on the waitlist at the library, but i'll just get it on my kindle if i don't get it in time

i think having designated chapters to read will be good for me, since i tend to stay away from reading unless i'm on vacation - i have no self-control and will stay up all night to finish a book!  so instead, i just read a lot less than i otherwise would this will be good...

I voted I'm ready.  I literally just got it in the mail.  I voted I'm ready... even though I'm still finishing up The Help (ladies - it's awesome!!  I can't put it down). 

I like the breakdown for each week.  Just to clarify though - what is considered a week... meaning what day will do our check-ins?

 I love it! Such a good read! The weather this weekend was absolutely gorgeous so I sat outside, got some much needed sun and read a good portion of the book.  So glad you ladies recommended it!

I'm ready, started reading it yesterday.  Glad we had some time to get a copy, my local library branch had to borrow a copy from the main library.

Monday to Sunday - so I'll post check ins every Monday so we can discuss what we've already read and that's when we'll start the next section.
