That's why, even though I had the poll up, the reasons I was getting from different people were mostly leaning towards the one discussion at the end of the month, for this month at least. I know I haven't made the greatest first impression, but, I hope you guys will stick it out at least for November!

    Alright

    Will November be done week by week or has that changed as well?

    You've been doing a great job with all of this! Thank you!

    Blech, such difficult questions. I have an idea, but, I'd hate to say it right now, because it may change...and, thanks, that's kind of you to say. Yeah, I'm good at changing my mind.

    Hee hee - I got October's book on Saturday, and finished it already. Next month, if we do week-to-week, I promise I'll limit myself to the chapters in question!

    I know. Seriously, I threw my copy across the room when I finished chapter six because I didn't know how we would do the discussion. I got to the chapter six, and, I thought I would die with the way the chapter ended. Ugh. I do think, with how quickly this started up, that the best way for October will be just to talk about it starting the 25th. That'll give us a week. And, we're working on a chat room.

    Darn it, I haven't even gotten my copy yet lol. I need to get to the library on Saturday, although I'll probibly have it finished by the end of next week so I'll be ok. The October discussion starts on the 25th right?

    I really do love this idea, and you're doing a good job of keeping things together! And yes your response to my post made sense.

    Oh thank goodness. Half the time I'm typing about this stuff, I'm totally lost and just it's like a race between my brain and my fingers. Sometimes, there's no winner, they both just get into a tussle and I give up. Ha ha.

    And, yeah, you have until the 25th before discussion opens publicly. And, the book seems to be a fast read, I stopped after the sixth chapter because I wasn't sure if were going to discuss those chapters and then read the next few or what...but, now that we're just reading this month's book all the way through and then discussing, I'll probably finish it today. It's a nice rainy day. Good tea and book weather. And, thank you so much for saying such kind things, it helps considering I feel like a flop with the whole thing every once in awhile. But, I'm so glad I took a chance and asked if there was anyone else who wanted to do this!

    I am either ending chapter 6 or starting chapter 7, it is really a good story and I love books that just suck you right in like that. This will be a good book for my daughter to read too since she is 12.
