In case you haven’t heard, it’s Back to School time! How many of you will send all of your children (or child) back (or for the first time), in the coming weeks if you haven’t already? To have a few minutes or hours of quiet time, to think clearly, not have to break up fights, make extra snacks or entertain the masses sounds rather appealing. As the days turn into weeks you may even find yourself a little bit bored (OK, I admit, that’s not too likely but still.) To sit an enjoy a book, uninterrupted until you’re done reading is a special gift, a moment to be embraced. I invite you to join our virtual book club and enjoy just that, some time just for you!
Our virtual book club utilizes the internet for our connecting. Facebook offers us a central meeting ground while offering us a place to answer questions about each months book, give insight into what we think the author was aiming for and so much more. Each month we invite our members to suggest and vote on the book we will be reading next, sometimes a specific genre is decided other times, the voting is wide open. This month, we chose to have our members vote openly.

I’m not much into book clubs, because frankly, I am all over the place when it comes to what I am in the mood to read at any given moment. While scrolling through your blog I saw the title for this book and got curious. My youngest daughter E. has been going on and on about how she “HAS TO” see this movie and since we all know that books are usually better than the movies, you now have me thinking that I should add this to my list! Thank you!
