Hello Fellow Book Clubbers!
Here we are at the beginning of 2012 and we have completed our 2011 new year’s resolution! We did it, we read all of Jane Austen’s (completed) novels!! Yay!! I have loved every minute of it! I don’t know about all of you, but I am thoroughly enjoying this book club and think it is a joy to be a part of. I am very much looking forward to this coming year to see what books we will read.
2012 will be a bit different than last year. Throughout this next year we have decided to make it a year where each book club member will pick out a book for everyone to read. They will be responsible for coming up with discussion questions for the book they choose, and for keeping everyone on track. We will be posting a schedule soon of whom, and when, fellow members will be picking. If you have a specific time you would like, please let me know.
We will be kicking off 2012 with The Help, by Kathryn Stockett. We will be reading it from January 1st to March 10th. I am Soooooo Excited to read The Help! I have been looking forward to reading this novel ever since I noticed it back in 2010. I knew it would be a great book club book, so I’ve been anxiously patiently waiting to have us all read it.
So until March 10th, Happy Reading Everyone!!!!!!
Thanks Rachel for getting our blog off to a great start for this new year. I think "The Help" is a wonderful choice for our first adventure away from Jane Austen. I have only read the very beginning, but it really grabbed me right away. I can tell it is going to be the kind of book I don't want to put down once I really get into it. I look forward to all the variety and wonderful reading this year will bring. This is a GREAT Book Club.
