Summer Plans

Hi Ladies!

Happy Spring! I'm pulling together plans for Book Club over the summer.  Plans have been MIA lately because I've spent every spare minute outside soaking up the sun...and I'm guessing you have too. =) 

Same Kind of Different As Me was lost in translation from winter to spring, so we'll just toss it in with our next meeting. Apologies! (We're waiting for "Water for Elephants" to hit the $3.50 theatre...we'll try to set a come-if-you-can date when that happens.)

Buckle up.  I'm about to make some big decisions.

Since summer is right around the corner, we're going to stretch out our meetings to once every other(ish) month. We'll meet June 22 and August 17 over the summer.  Random?  Yes. But I'm thinking if I throw a couple dates out there, we might be able to pull it off. And these two avoid summer holidays and split up the summer. It gives us lots of time to read in between vacations and trips to the beach and the ice cream shop.  In August we'll decide if we want to stick with the every other month routine or if we want to jump back on the once a month wagon.

As far as book selections go, there are lots of possibilities posted in the previous post (here) and in the comments.  Check them out and vote for your top three picks via comment or Facebook message by THIS FRIDAY, May 20. I'll take the top two picks and let you know what books we're reading this summer.  Please vote! Or, look out, I'm going to fly solo and pick, and I can't promise I won't just set up Twilight as one of the options because I love a good corny re-read for the beach.  ;)

Talk to me. =)

  1. I think I may be too far gone on crafting overload + I have one book waiting for me to read from my bday + my friend who has her upcoming novel in a finalist contest sent me her 300some page novel to read. So, I'm thinking I could to be MIA all summer. :( If anything I know August 17th would work for me, so if I can at all... I'll shoot for that one. But you just make plans without me and if I can make it I will. I'm sorry I'm such a loser and already made book suggestions and am too ADD to commit to reading another book! LOL Hope you get some more feedback this time though! :) Thanks for always being the organized one!
