Book Club - next book!

Let the Great World Spin

i had such a hard time deciding - so many books to read, so little time!  I hope most people haven't read it before, and that it's good!

eta: it's about 400 pages; I'll take a look tonight and post a week by week chapter breakdown

Re: Book Club - next book!

  • Sounds like a great book!  I'm number SIX in line at the library though...darn it!!!
  • Oooh, looks good!

    Have you beat Amy - I'd be number 445 on the waiting list in Toronto. I think I'll go out and buy this one. Big Smile

  • Sounds really good!  I don't know yet if I'll be able to participate this month, though....depends on when the little guy decides to show up!

  • Sounds good, I can't wait to read it.  We start our moving process next week, so I am going to have to buy this book.  I doubt I'll finish it by the time we leave Pensacola.  
  • My library doesn't have it so it looks like I'll be buying it - it sounds fabulous so I'm excited about adding it to my book collection!
  • The book is divided into 4 sections, but the first is really long, and the last is really short.  So I tried to split it into 4 even sections, based on how long the book is.  How about:

    July 19 - 25: beginning - Miro, Miro, on the Wall
    July 26 - Aug 1: A Fear of Love - Etherwest
    Aug 2 - 8: This is the House That Horse Built - Part of the Parts
    Aug 9 - 15: Centavos - end

  • Are we supposed to start the book now?  I thought we were still on the other book until the end of the month...am I nuts?

    hrm...here's what Lisa had in the book club thread for the last child:

    This month: The Last Child by John Hart
    Week One (Jun 21-27): Ch. 1 - 12
    Week Two (Jun 28-Jul 4): Ch. 13 - 27
    Week Three (Jul 5-11): Ch. 28 - 39
    Week Four (Jul 12-18): Ch. 40 - end

    so I just started the new book on 7/19.  Should we wait until August instead?

  • Amy is just nuts!  Let's start it 7/19 Geeked
  • It's true. I'm nuts.  I didn't know that was what she laid out ('cause I don't pay attention to details).  I'm glad I ordered the book then, I'm ready to go!
  • woohoo. i'm ready.

    i just made a "book club" collection on my kindle (nerd!).  I also just figured out how to mark the sections so I know when to start/stop.
