Half Broke Horses for June

I think I mentioned this book when we met at Heather's place and I have decided to make it our official selection for June.  (Especially after seeing it at Costco for $9.99...great book to ask for as a Christmas gift!)  It's by Jeannette Walls, whose writing we enjoyed in The Glass Castle, (also $9.99 at Costco right now.)   She calls it a 'true life' story, (thanks James Frey,) but it is based on the life of her grandmother, a character who has stuck with me months after reading the book.  Half Broke Horses is  a quick read; organized in perfect little 'before bed' snippets.

I hope you enjoy it!  

(And no, it won't count as your biography if you read it before Marnie's book club gathering on Dec.13th!!!)

See you soon!

You are invited!!!

Hope you don't mind me posting something here, unrelated to book club?
Would be so great to see you all there... or another time if you cannot make the event.

Only two months unaccounted for!

Thanks Jennifer for taking February!  If you're so inclined, follow this link that Jennifer added with her book choice:

Hello Everyone!  Kathy has confirmed hosting details for January so check out the book selection on the sidebar...

Updated Blog

Good morning Ladies!

Lovely to spend time with you at Deb's 'party-house' last night.  (What was the name of that tiler?)  Thank you for hosting Deb!  Your book choice was a unanimous hit so thank you for introducing us to a new genre.

I've quickly updated our reading list on the side-bar, but haven't added Kathy as I was uncertain of her month preference & selection.

I think we should try to add a list of 'good reads' to our blog this year.  Does anyone want to take on the task of compiling such a list?  How would we best publish it?  Ideas are welcome!

Our first three book choices are a good indication that we have a fantastic year of reading ahead of us!  See you all next month!
