    I don't like or dislike how it jumps around, but, I don't want to say too much! We can talk more about why y'all don't like that in the discussions, because I'm curious! I just finished it about thirty minutes ago...I'm so excited, because now I'm reading another book already. I knew this would be the motivation I needed to get back into reading!

    Don't worry, I won't go into any details. My tastes are usually different from other peoples anyway

    I should hope so! I don't usually have the same tastes as many others...the going back and forth thing isn't necessarily something that I want in a book, but, it doesn't bother me, either.

    I've picked up the book, and in all honesty, it probably would not have been one that I would have chosen. But the spirit of the book club is to read different authors, so I'm looking forward to the read. It certainly sparked Carole's interest though.

    Hey, Trev! You hit the nail on the head with that comment...I probably wouldn't have chosen it, either, but, it's a quick read, and, actually pretty good. It's not too girly, don't worry. Parts of it are, but, overall, it's not. I hope you like it! I'm so glad so many are taking part in this!

    We're opening the discussion for it on the 25th in Pet Talk. It'll just be on this thread, so, that we don't have tons of threads opened. We may have the live chat going for this month, too, but out of the whole group, I only got a few responses on when it would be good to set it up, so, I don't know, there doesn't appear to be a ton of interest. So, it may only be a couple of people. We'll see if more people pm me with times and if more people sign up in the chat room.

    Don't forget, we're opening discussion for the book tomorrow! Blech, I finished it so early, it's going to be hard remembering some of it. Guess that's why it will be a good idea when we break November's book into chapters and weeks!

    Bought it Saturday and haven't even opened it yet!

    Guess I will be comparing my reading to the reactions of others on this one!!!

    Maybe the discussion should be on a seperate thread, I dont think many know that it is here.

    I'll put in my thoughts later....I don't have time right now.

    Well, crap, everyone said originally that there were too many threads. Hmph. I thought originally about making a separate thread, but, then thought everything concerning October's book should be in one thread...hmm...I wonder what the best course of action should be at this point.

    I know I'm a bit of a hypocrite since i was one of the people saying their was too many threads, but now you have to search for where the discussion starts and someone asked me if it was posted yet and I directed them here.
