Book Club

Are we still doing the book club, I don't remember seeing a post how the first meeting was or what the next book will be.

Re: Book Club

  • We actually never met because people dropped like flies!! :)  I have been so busy I forgot about rescheduling but am certainly open to meeting to discuss the first book and then picking another book to read if we have enough interest!!
  • sorry i dropped...  my thing is, with school books to read i don't want to read "real" books as well.  i read a LOT, but that's because i do audio books at work.  the book chosen wasn't available in audio and actually, not even at my library in regular format.

    i'm sorry...  =(

    Kathryn W's book recommendations, liked quotes, book clubs, book trivia, book lists (read shelf)
  • Oh gosh... no need for apologies.  Life happens and we are all very busy.  I can totally understand why people couldn't or wouldn't be involved. 
  • For me it was more the meeting location...  I'm okay with driving to the opposite end of the valley, but not so much with driving downtown.  I realize that's the easiest way to make it central for everyone though.
  • I thought the book was horrible half way in, so I stopped reading it.  Reminded me too much of "She's Come Undone"

    I was not a fan either.  Didn't take me back to She's come undone but it wasn't one of Jane Green's best books either.  I don't think a pre-requisite for attending the meeting is liking (or even finishing) the book.  :)  It's just for fun!!!

  • Well, I personally liked the book. 

    As far as the meetings go, would it work better for more people if we alrenated east vally/ west valley so it is more of a compermise of traveling instead of going out of ones way to a central location? Just a thought.

    I liked the book also but just couldn't make it the day that was scheduled. I wouldn't mind alternating either that way even if some people couldn't make it from across down they could still go to every other meeting.

    Thank you, I was just thinking that I know I get tired of always going to the East Valley so if we did 50/50 maybe more people would be more inclined to go =)
