1537498 April is slowly creeping already! Wow! So, let's pick one book for next month. Anybody up for discussing Twilight? The movie is coming out this month and New Moon comes out in November. I don't mind re-reading the series again. lol!
I know most of us read the book, but there are still some that haven't. Kris, I have an extra book :o)
Well, what do you guys thinks? And of course I am always open for suggestions.

The Enchantress of Florence A Novel
Brideshead Revisited

1748394 I am all for whatever you guys choose. I love being introduced to new titles but I know I MUST READ Twilight at some point and join the sweeping craze. heehee LOL
I like the sound of Angels & Demons, too.

1538154 Oh yes Angels and Demons too... the movie comes out in May right? That might not be a bad May book if it doesn't come out too early in the month.

1537498 I've been so busy lately, I haven't been on here in awhile! Sorry guys! As many of you already know, my husband and I will be closing on our first home either on the 17th or the 22nd of April. Yay! I was thinking of hosting a meet at my new place as soon as I am fully moved and settled.

So, for the month of April we do not have enough time to vote. I was thinking of having a free month. We could all read a book of our choice and share our thoughts on the book. I can set up a thread for it.

On our next meet we should all discuss a dedicated book for each month for the rest of this year. This way we can all be prepared to have the books on hand. We can always vote for a second book online, in case of a great find, a new novel, and for the rest of our online Goodreads friends. I can set up a thread for the books you all want to nominate, list at least 7 books. For our friends who live far from us, you are of course welcome to nominate. We will count your nominations in :o)

....But first I would like to know what you guys think.

1748394 First of all, with all that you have going on right now, I think you are incredible to be even tackling this informative email. Kudos to you, Rosalie. We are so lucky to have you as our moderator and organizer. Woo hoo.
Having April off as a free month is a great idea. I,too, have April commitments and the schools are on Spring Break. There are a lot of activities this month.
I will do my best to nominate a few books. I have been so out of the loop as to what is up and coming book wise that I truly depend on you guys to bring nominations to the table. I haven't been disappointed yet. I will try to keep this in the back of my mind and will not be offended if you keep reminding me to get to task.
Thank you, Rosalie for all you do and I would love to see the new place as a meet. Very cool. This time we can bring the chocolates and maybe finger foods for a potluck kind of thing. ( since we have a tendency to linger for hours. lol)
I always look forward to getting together with you ladies. You are so energizing!!

1537498 Awwwww! Thanks, Kris! The pot luck thing is a great idea. I can't wait to move in. I have a lot of painting to do! lol! I hope to loose a few pounds.

I will set up the threads. Hope you all are having a great week!
