June book choice

Wow...I've been really behind on getting this latest post up.  We had our book club meeting 4 days ago.  Sorry for the delay.  First of all, thank you to all of the ladies that came on Wed.  We had a really fun group.  Interestingly enough, we spent a lot of the evening discussing Something Borrowed from last month.  I guess we didn't exhaust that subject last month.  Finally, Rachel was able to bring us around and we began our discussion of The Hourglass Door.  Rachel actually created her own questions for this book because she wasn't able to find any.  Overall, this was a pretty popular book.  Not many of the ladies had tried to read the second book in the series but many of us were curious as to how it would end.  We also did a lot of comparison between this book and the Twilight series.  Some liked Twilight better but we were probably evenly divided.

Jaymee was in charge of our book choices this month.  We ended up going with The Education of Little Tree by Forrest Carter.



I don't know much about this book.  It is not something that was published recently.  I believe it was first published in 1976.  Jaymee said that she read it for one of her college courses.  I think it is going to be quite different from books we've read in the past but I'm excited for that.  It's good to get out of your comfort zone every once in a while.

Our next meeting will be on Wednesday, July 20th at 6:45 pm.  I will be in charge of the book choices, Amy Jo will be bringing dessert, and Jaymee has volunteered to help me with dinner.

I hope all of you have a great 4th of July.

Happy Reading!

Carly
