Relishing Reading

Hello everyone!

I thought a blog might be kinda fun and I thought it would help us keep in touch as some of our beloved members move on to exciting yet far-flung life pursuits.

So! Share whatever you'd like...thoughts on the reading, recipes for CAKE (!), ideas for books to read, links to reviews, whatever strikes your fancy.

To kick things off, I'll post our next three book selections...

February: A Mercy by Toni Morrison

March: The House of the Spirits by Isabel Allende

April: Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen

We talked tonight about moving book club from Mondays to Thursdays. Does Thursday work better for people? There's a poll below this post where you can vote your preference.

Til next we talk, write, or blog...

  1. This is my first blog post ever! I just want to say what a lovely time I had on Monday (thanks Amy for hosting!), even though I did not read the book! That is how good this book club is! So I am excited to read the next book and also excited to share that my new job affords me many luxuries, one of which is that if we choose a book we have in stock, and no one is using it- I can loan books to the entire group! That way, if you don't want to buy you don't have to! One book I noticed we do have is The Bean Trees- did someone mention something about reading that? Plenty of copies, so come spring, that one is on me. In the meantime I will pick up A Mercy and get to reading. Hope everyone is well!
