Book postings and club interaction
Hey gals,
I was thinking of starting to blog about what I like about the books Im reading and what I don't and just blogging about reading as that is what we do in this club. I was hoping that maybe everyone could log on here and there and blog your thoughts/feelings/opinions about books we are reading for club, books you are reading on your own and books you wish you could read. I am trying to get our blog more used and possible get people commenting and suggesting book ideas.
Anyways wanted to see how you all felt about blogging every once in a while.
Mid month April 15th Ali's house- Julie need confirmation
Is this still a go??? Julie have you done any prep for this???
April Meeting: April 21st- Maren's House- Gone Girl
Ok gals start reading if you haven't already. I don't know about you but this book is awesome. I hate having to go to work when I know I need to find out what has happened to Amy. It's more mysterious then Malice (where you just don't know who the culprit is).
Anyway please read everyone. I'd really like to get a good discussion going about this book. So many topics:
Relationships;
secrets in marriages/relationships;
How chicks think emotionally in regards to relationships.
I am going to bring some of Amy's diary entries where she gives option A,B,C.... and its kind of interesting cuz I know I do that when Im in an argument in a relationship.
READ PLEASE!!!!! Bring a topic that interests you to the meeting.

March meeting Minutes- Malice- Tristana's House
We read Malice by Lisa Jackson
We agreed that it was a fun, action-packed read. No one except Meriah was able to guess the killer's identity until the end.
Food was a southern theme with Grits, shrimp, pulled pork, Gorgonzola cream sauce, BBQ sauce, salad, punch.
