Anyone want to participate? 

Your Mom --- 11 years ago -

i don't mind doing an ebook thread on LU. but i'm too shabby to host wine and cheese critiques. 

AwesomeSauce --- 11 years ago -

I've tried to join a few but they fall apart before the first meeting lol. I'm down. 

AwesomeSauce --- 11 years ago -

Double post. 

Frankie --- 11 years ago -

Oooo fun. Depends on the genre of books. 

BelleAdoresMommaFriend --- 11 years ago -

Lets do it! 

myopinion --- 11 years ago -

Alright. I'll have the top three selections posted here by dinner time. We will vote. Everyone will be responsible for their own copy. If funds are short there is the library. Wednesday or Thursdays would work better for me. And if we could do it at my house, I live very close to baae so for those that don't like going on base it is perfect. 

myopinion --- 11 years ago -

Oh I figured we would start at 7pm and end around 830 or 9. Three chapters a week. Suggestions? 

myopinion --- 11 years ago -

Option one a book by wally lamb (sp?) I think its she's come undone.... 

Frankie --- 11 years ago -

Oooo well that counts me out bc i don't live there. I thought it would be like an online thing. Well poo. Have fun ladies! 

myopinion --- 11 years ago -

Ok whose in? 

Your Mom --- 11 years ago -

lets do your book =^.^= 

myopinion --- 11 years ago -

You know someone in editing who would do it for free? Look if those that come are interested we could share personal writing as well. I am going to whore this out...

This Wednesday starts at 7, unsure of the reading at this particular moment. 

AwesomeSauce --- 11 years ago -

This Wednesday? Farmers market and books!

And I have nothing to share lol. I don't write things for other people to read. 

Your Mom --- 11 years ago -

just have a robot do the bulk of your work. 

myopinion --- 11 years ago -

Hmmm that is pretty interesting. I'll have to really read up on the program. I am on my way back from the symphony in the park in Oly, so I just browsed. For those that are coming Wednesday, state so. I'll have this book thing figured out, totally open to suggestions! 

AwesomeSauce --- 11 years ago -

I'll go.. 

Your Mom --- 11 years ago -

do you like tosca lee

this ones up for grabs 

myopinion --- 11 years ago -

Interesting. I think if we all get the same book we could track it better. 

myopinion --- 11 years ago -

 

Your Mom --- 11 years ago -

what should i start reading? 

myopinion --- 11 years ago -

I am waiting for my mom to text me back. She is VERY well read, and has been a part of many book clubs. So I asked her to give me two suggestions. I'll post as soon as I have the title. 

myopinion --- 11 years ago -

Yup
"She's come un done"
By Wally Lamb
The library will have this.
Get ready it is not light read.
Wednesday 7pm to 8 or 8:30.
Ill offer a light snack and a glass of wine.
Please refrain from bringing children. Some have asked about babes that is fine. Dialogue is not appropriate for young ears.

Three chapters a week. Please don't read a head.
Please read!
We will discuss the expectation of each weekly meeting. A Q and A time.
I would like us to stay on point, which is the book. This way we can dig really deep. 

myopinion --- 11 years ago -

Pm me for addy.
Please do not be intimidated to join. These can be incredible opportunitys to open your mind and exercise your knowledge. Everyone is welcome to be a critic and no judgments! 

AwesomeSauce --- 11 years ago -

I will happily leave my boy home. He can have man time with his daddy ;-) ill check the library tomorrow for a copy. 

myopinion --- 11 years ago -

Great! Check lakewood to! 

Your Mom --- 11 years ago -

omg i just realized that when i was 14 i found this on the shelf of my parents condo homeowners association's library.
i didn't get that far into it before my parents found it, read it, and threw it away. i had to explain to the home owners association people what happened. 

Frankie --- 11 years ago -

I definitely don't think I'd ever survive a book club. I usually finish a book in 2-3 days. I couldn't imagine just a few chapters a week. 

AwesomeSauce --- 11 years ago -

Haha I feel the same way. It's going to be tough. 

myopinion --- 11 years ago -

Lmao ona.......now you get to finally finish it!
Yeah its gonna be tough to read it slowly. This makes it easier to pick it a part. If you read a head you won't be shunned, but ya gotta stay present and involved.
