[close] Hey hey! Welcome to Limes n' Tangerines, fellow readers! With limes and tangerines in season, we thought of getting started on a bookclub this winter! Consider this a platform to squeeze those limes and tangerines from gripping books and wring out their juicy gossips! Little do we know how much is out there waiting for us to explore and discover! Let's delve into the intricacies and complexities of other authors' thinking and allow them to stir familiar or unexpected emotions within us to get the conversation rolling! Through this, let's entertain similar or differing ideas, challenging the dynamics of our own thinking! The objective is to read the monthly allocated books. Then, during the last week of the month, discuss the book. This is an open conversation for all to contribute their thoughts and feelings! Through this journey, we'll face sour ideas like limes and a tad sweeter ones like tangerines! So, fix yourselves a plate of limes and tangerines and let's read our hearts out, speak our minds and grow all together!
