A New Idea

Posted by Queenie 24 June, 2009

I have been thinking that I need to breathe a little life back into this place. Spruce things up. Try some new stuff. Well, summer is here so I really don’t feel like starting a cyber work out group. It’s too fucking hot for that. Sooo…I have decided to start a book club. Right here on my blog. I am going to pick the reads. The hope is to get some decent convos happening about a bunch of different types of literature. I love reading. I think its a great way to learn and to relax.

Here is how it’s going to work:
I will post the title of the book we are going to read. Don’t panic. I am not much into frilly mushy sex novels. Nope. No Danielle Steele here. I like adventure and plot twists. Books that pull ya in and that make you not want to put them down. Guys and Gals are welcome to participate. We will have about a month to read the entire book. I figure that will be long enough for even the slow readers. I will be posting discussion topics about our title throughout the month. With the final “meeting” being posted on the specified date. After we are finished, I will give us about a week off before we start the next one.

Most of the books that I am going to suggest can be found at your local libraries or you can purchase them at places like Target and Walmart. I encourage everyone to check out the various used book shops in their areas as well as Book Swaps. Used books are one of my favorite things.

So…for July, we are going to read Almost Moon by Alice Seabold. I loved reading Lovely Bones and I hope that I love this one equally as much. Get on the stick if you are going to participate. I am looking forward to hearing all of your comments about this novel. The big discussion will take place on July 27 right here on the blog.
