Reading Three Cups of Tea by Greg Mortenson

Merry Christmas

Hope you all enjoyed your Christmas reading. Sorry we had to cancel our meeting. I'll send out a new evite soon for the end of January. We'll read Three Cups of Tea by Greg Mortenson for that meeting, and The Thief by Megan Whalen Turner for our February/early March meeting. Looking forward to seeing you then!

Choose a Book!

Time to vote! Below are some of books that you recommended. Please vote by Thursday, since we will decide on the book then. Also, feel free to come with any other ideas for future books. See you Thursday!

By the way, I will apologize in advance for any advertising or difficulty deciphering my poll--it is a freebie!

December Meeting

OK, after much deliberation, I've decided on a slightly different format for our December meeting. Instead of trying to find a book that is short, uplifting, holiday themed, and perfect for everyone, I'm challenging you to find your own!! Here are the guidelines:
...has a Christmas or holiday theme
...fairly easily available for others to get if they like the sound of it
...something you've re-read RECENTLY, preferrably this year (not one you read in high school and vaguely remember!)

When we meet, we'll give a BRIEF synopsis of the book we read, then explore some common themes of holiday books through our questions. Hopefully a little change will be good! In a separate post, I'll reccommend some books that might fit the bill.

As a sidenote, if you have a favorite children's Christmas book, bring that along too!

Come to my house
Thursday, December 11 7:00 p.m.
Invite a friend!

Thanks for Coming

Thanks to everyone who came last night! I really enjoyed time with new friends and old, and I think our discussion was lively and interesting. (I guess the peach shortcake and apple goat cheese bruschetta weren't too shabby either!) Hopefully you found our evening fun as well. See you next time!
