The Next Fluff Read


I think i'm going to try out Maureen Johnson next. I tossed around the idea of reading "13 Little Blue Envelopes" but then it sounded like it would not be satisfying in the ways that I require so I never did. "Devilish" got great reviews but I was still unsure. "Girl at Sea" now, sounds like it is RIGHT up my alley. :)

Unilateral Decision (kinda)



Since there hasn't been oodles of feedback about our next bookclub, I am unilaterally deciding (with the help of Kristen and Angela:) that we should do Ketura and Lord Death for October. Why? Because it is: a) short, b) fits in well with Halloween, c) because I just read it so I remember it better than Goose Girl, and d) it is a GREAT read. I'm willing to host again, since I got off easy with the whole book signing thing in August. How about my place, Thursday, October 18th, 7:30?

Also, Angela suggested that we try to set a specific day, i.e. the 3rd Thursday of every month. We can discuss at bookclub, so bring your calendars / schedules / crackberries... whatever. She also had a book suggestion, which I now can't remember the name of, but we can talk about whether we want to do that for November and who wants to host (Angela... hint, hint).

Anxiously awaiting comments, questions, concerns and the like.

Another Good One!


Okay i'm only a third of the way through but i couldn't wait to post about this book. apparently it has rec'd rave reviews (how did we never hear?) and it's in paperback now so it's not too expensive. I'll definetely be picking out more stuff by Celia Rees!

Next?


So, what is our next book and whose turn is it to pick the book? I would still like to (some time) do a spa night/ book club with Shannon Hale's Goose Girl and have Andrea read the book too, so she can discuss while she pampers us. But I'm up for anything in the meantime. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
I'm eagerly awaiting comments.
