Bookclub chapter assignment

Hey ladies, I've been checking out other bookclubs to see how different ones run themselves. I found a cool idea from one and wanted to discuss it at the meeting. An idea for club would be assigning chapters to be complete by a certain date. For instance if a book is 300 pages, that's 10 pages a day for the month. Or we could do something like week 1- read chapter 1-2, week 2- read chapter 2-5, etc...... This may help with larger books of 400 pages or more should we want to read a long paged book. This could help train us to read at least 10 pages a day, this could help make the reading seem like it takes less time. Just a thought. Let me know what you think.

Mid Month Movin on.....

Hello Ladies. So we can discuss further at the meeting but it seems best to suspend Mid Month for a bit. There is a lot going on in life and we all need our time. Not a big deal we can revisit the idea later on. Remember Mid Month was originally spawned because many of us at the time had more time and we wanted to spend it with each other. Life has drastically changed from where we were in the start of mid month and so it goes. Our main focus is Bookclub and reading and that we got down cold. So happy reading sistas. Drowning Ruth is pretty crazy.
