WELCOME! What shall we read first?

Thank you everybody for being a part of this new venture... many intro posts to follow, and also may even move this blog if it does not fit the needs I'd like it to... but for now, this is home!

We need to pick TWO books, one for SEPTEMBER and OCTOBER.

Here are my suggestions, please follow in a comment with your book suggestion until MONDAY at 6pm (West Coast CA time)... after, we will then have two days to vote (HOW DO I DO A POLL HERE?).



MY BOOK CHOICES (TOP 2 VOTES OF EVERYBODY'S SUGGESTIONS WILL BE THE 2 WE READ :)

can you keep a secret -by sophie kinsella

in her shoes -by jennifer weiner

reading lolita in tehran -by azar nafisi

the time traveler's wife -by audrey niffenegger



... Now in a comment, leave your suggestions of what you'd like to read, either one or a few, or you can just wait to vote after all suggestions are in Monday evening!

  2. Any of those sound great to me, Lauren! What is the best place to access those books without running to the bookstore?

  4. Oh, gosh...I really dislike this blogspot format. Too clunky and tedious. Are you committed to it, Lauren? Frustrating having to wait for message approval after going through everything necessary to be a member, and my membership isn't even right. Ugh. And word verification for every post? Even worse. Probably to frustrating for me.

    Lemme know.

COMMENT GUIDELINES :-) In ALL comments, unless you are responding to a chapter I have blogged on, or it is an off-topic post, PLEASE put the chapter in which you have read through at the top of you comment for those who have not read that far, we like to not spoil the book for them. Comments without this will have to be deleted by me and reposted by you
