What happened to the book club

Soleil3 · November 2013

Did I miss it?

Emeraldeyed315 · November 2013

there was a book club? if this is active/becomes active again can I participate?

V&G101808 · November 2013

I didn't know something formal had started. Let's do this!!

BTW Sol- I just finished Allegiant. I was surprised, I thought it was good! Not sure why so many people said it was bad.

Revez · November 2013

I'm so on board if this becomes a thing!

thoughtfulmommy · November 2013

We need to choose a book. Preferably something newer so hopefully many of us haven't read it. Anyone want to throw out a recommendation?

CupcakecutieRN · November 2013

Someday,someday maybe by Lauren graham (ie gilmour girls). Or beautiful day by elin hilderbrand

LEMSA · November 2013

I'm in!

kanned0121 · November 2013

I'd love to join!!

BlueJewelM · November 2013

Following.

Marvel1013 · November 2013

I'm in too!!

Ashesha13 · November 2013

I need to get back into reading. I miss getting lost in a good book. Especially with winter coming, time to snuggle up with a warm drink and good book, of that's still possible.

I'm in

V&G101808 · November 2013

Anyone one else have suggestions? Once we have a few suggestions we can create a poll and vote on a book.

How long does everyone need to read a book? 2 weeks? More?

Soleil3 · November 2013

I thouht we were just kinda gonna read whatever we want and then talk about it?

I just read Ready Player One and found it really good, left me wanting more

nnikki10 · November 2013

Oh this would be fun. I need to get back into reading. I like the idea of us all reading the same book.

@Soleil3 that was a great one! You might also like Enders Game

I did, loved the whole series

Millie1984 · November 2013

I'll jump on the bandwagon if this can really become a thing!

TeacherMom210 · November 2013

I love to read! I recently finished a Sherlock Holmes/Jack the Ripper novel whose name I cannot recall at the moment. It's hard for me to read for fun during the school year sometimes, though, since I teach English and have to do a lot of reading for work. I'd be on board with a book club, though.

HermansWife · November 2013

I'd be on board too!

alijeff2313 · November 2013

I'll definitely be in!

Soleil3 · November 2013

Alright so lets start it then. Book suggestions?

magdalina.h · November 2013

y'all have time to read a book?!? I read while I pump

nittanygirl28 · November 2013

Haven't found time for reading since LO but this may help me get back into the swing of things. Zarkoe-I'm a Lisa Scottoline fan. I'll have to check out Save Me.

thoughtfulmommy · November 2013

Suggestions from a top YA list.

Maze runner
Uglies
The fault in our stars

Revez · November 2013

I'm embarrassed to say that it's been a while since I've read a book that has an adult target audience. $:\$ ">

I did however read the game of thrones series which was fantastic. I'm completely open to whatever you ladies suggest.

Soleil3 · November 2013

On my to read list-

The Secret History- Donna Tartt

Clockwork Angel - Cassandra claire

Article 5 Kirsten Simmons

Revez · November 2013

@Soleil3 I read Clockwork Angel a while back. Unfortunately it wasn't as good as I was hoping it would be. I loved reading that series though.

sarymonster · November 2013

I'm in! I vowed to cut way down on my daytime TV during my maternity leave and the result has been that I read on my kindle while I breastfeed. Works great. I've done 14 books (some of them are easy reads... I have my guilty pleasures) since I started. Next on my reading list is a delightful series I found by Nancy Springer- the Enola Holmes mysteries. They are the sister of sherlock holmes and she's into mystery solving. I also found a great one this morning called The Kitchen House by Kathleem Grissom that I'm looking forward to starting- that would be a great book club book. I've been searching for inspiration on goodreads.com Its hard to find new books you want to read sometimes! do a lot of crimesolver fluff books like Janet Evanovich and Victoria Laurie.

Soleil3 · November 2013

Ohh the passage is a good one to, its on my re-read list. (going through my calibre)

julianndelaney · November 2013

I'd love to join in! I'll keep an eye out for what is decided! I'm open to whatever, but the Lauren graham book has been on my list and I saw it was mentioned (it's going to be turned into a movie I think or a tv series, I'd like to get the book read before that happens :P) but I am open

KQuinonez · November 2013

Count me in too. Not sure when I will have time but I need to read. It helps my stress levels.

tanabeans · November 2013

I wanna play,
On my reading list is the giver series, I only read the first one a long time ago.
Also I just looked at the kindle best seller list and the book thief and stcamore row look good to me

Soleil3 · November 2013

Oh the book thief is on my list too

thoughtfulmommy · November 2013

I'll give a third nomination to the book thief.

Marvel1013 · November 2013

Kama sutra? :-??

LEMSA · November 2013

It sounds like book thief i guess.

Any ideas how it should work? I've never done one online. Like 2 chapters a week and discuss? Or be like a real book club and just drink wine and talk about anything else besides the book?

PB102012 · November 2013

I am in! Book Thief will be on my kindle by tonight!

With working and such I'd say a month? Maybe I'm on the slow end...

Agreed! I haven't so much as picked up a book since LO. But before I was into silly quick read chick books. I wouldn't mind something a little different.

Eta: not true. I read Llama Llama and Dr Seuss on the regular. Book club worthy?

HermansWife · November 2013

I'm in for the book thief. :-)

Soleil3 · November 2013

I say two weeks? That puts us on t-day though, so either before or after?

PB102012 · November 2013

Two chapters in two weeks works for me.
