    Oh, man, Karen. I know! I'll have to have at least one other book to read, so that I don't read too far in advance. Hopefully, everyone will do that!

    I think next month I might try it. I'm not an avid reader but I'll try to keep up with everyone. I used to read a lot until this evil computer came along......

    9/3/13
    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.
    [/SIZE]



    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.

    I may join. I'm going to hold off for next month though, I will certainly read the discussions though. The sisterhood of the travelling pants really isn't my thing


    Is the discussion open tomorrow the 25th or November the 25th??

    Ha ha, well, that is sort of the point of the book club, to read things and meet authors you wouldn't normally choose. But, I totally understand.

    The discussion for October's book will open tomorrow, the 25th. I'll post November's schedule soon.

    YAY! I can't wait for the discussion to be open! Is is just an open discussion or are we going to be talking about paticular topics/questions? There are some discussion topics in the back of the book that you might want to take a look at.

    Is the chat room going to be used?

    I put times for the chat room, and, if folks want to participate, I've sent them all the link. As for how the discussion is going to go, I think we can let it be open and post some questions, as well. This will be a first time thing for me, so, those questions in the back of the book are so not what I'm used to thinking about, it'll be interesting. The book wasn't over my head, but, some of the questions feel that way, just because I haven't really dissected novels or stories that way since I was in school. Just a different way of thinking, and, it'll be a learning experience for me, and, hopefully, we'll just have good participation, regardless of the type. As long as it's about October's book, it'll be fine.

    I think I am going to go the old fashion route on that one, and check the library. We take the dogs every Tuesday so the kids can read to them...might as well check out some books while I am there!
