February/Nestie Book Club

I will be hosting book club at my house on Saturday from 11-1. I am serving a blueberry coffee cake and maybe something else. 

For anyone that would like to join us next month, the book we are reading for March is Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet by Jamie Ford. Angie will be hosting.

 With the exception of Renee I think everyone that is coming this month knows where I live but I will message everyone  on FB. 

Re: February/Nestie Book Club

  • I want to come, but I don't know if I'll be welcomed after that convo two weeks ago.

  • You are always welcome at my house. :)
  • Stephie, wish I could make it, but it is my grandpa's 80th birthday, so we will be in San Antonio celebrating!  Y'all have fun.

    Angela, Please don't take this the wrong way, but it kinds of seems like you are trying to play the victim role.  Either your work, or a conversation, or something stops you from attending.  That whole conversation two weeks ago was nasty, but it wasn't directed at you attending.  If you want to go, then go, if you don't then don't.  Don't worry about everyone else.

  • Umm, a conversation has never stopped me from going. Stephie knew what I was talking about & we have already discussed it, which is why I only put a smiley face up. I'm not really sure where this is coming from, I've never asked to be treated like a victim.
    ...and I don't really think you know enough about the situation to make comments like that.

  • Ladies, I havent gotten anywhere close to finishing the book.  I really dont think I will be able to by Sat.  Dont know if I should still come or not.

    I'm on page 86 and I will try to get as much done as I can but you should totally come anyway!

     

     

  • I haven't gotten very far either, and I've pretty much given up on finishing... but I'm coming anyway!!  You should totally still come.  Our book discussion might not be very good, but at least there will be good food & good company!
  • Yes, I agree, if you at least made an attempt, please come anyway.  It will still be fun. 

    I got to a chapter last night where I was like, what the.....??  I mean, as confusing as it is, I just know it will all come together in the end so that keeps me going!  And I'm not through either but I'll stay up all night Friday night if I have to.

    Last night I got deterred by the movie 28 Days.  We have GOT to stop staying up late watching creepy movies.

  • Reading this thread made me feel better. I wasn't going to go on Saturday because I haven't made it much farther than 15% and highly doubt that I'll get finished by Saturday.

    If BL and others don't have it finished and are still going then so am I! Now, what should I bring?

  • I read about 1/2 of it last night. It's really hard to follow.

  • Renee, I am 18% in and doubt I will make it much beyond 20% and I will still go.
  • Maybe we should just meet for the movie, lol.

    For those that have read the book and seen the movie, how close is the movie to the book? 

  • I tried to find the movie, but it is only at strange times during the week, like 11am.  Google doesn't have its Saturday showtimes up for some reason...
  • Ugh, at this point I have no desire to see the movie.  I told Ben no TV tonight so I can finish this dern thing.

    Renee, I am serving blueberry coffee cake and I also pinned some cinnamon ball looking things last night that I might make.  Don't worry about plates, cups, drinks, etc., I'll have all that.  But since what I am serving is sweet, you might want to bring something more savory.

  • Ah!! Wish I would have seen this before now! Looking for a new "group" to get involved in.. details??? :)
