Paula -’s Comments (group member since Jul 17, 2016)

Paula -’s comments from the Ready, Set, READ! Bookclub group.

This is for the discussion of chapters 1 - 8 of What We Saw. Have fun chatting guys.

Hey you wonderful people of the internet,
I know this Goodreads group has been really lacking and I'm really sorry. The ladies and I are working on somethings to try and make this group better, and we would love any feedback of things you would like to see from us.

Starting this month I shall be splitting the books up into sections, (e.g - Chapters 1-5, Chapters 6-8 and so on) so we can actually discuss the book and no one will be spoiled.
There will also be a question section attached to each book discussion, so if you can't make the live show event. You can still be a part of it and we can talk about your questions on air.
From January 2017 we shall be introducing polls, so you guys have a say in what books we read each month.

That's all I have for you right now. Talk to you guys soon. xxx

We're about to start the live show guys

My Lady Jane

I'm really sorry things have been so up in the air. I've never hosted a Goodreads group or a Book Club, so I'm learning as I go. Please stick with us. Also any input you guys want to give that would be great.

There will be spoilers!!!

Hi Debbie, I'm so happy you want to join the book club, you are most defiantly welcome.
Congrats on getting to your last year. Nursing is a very tough but amazing profession.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. xxx

Me too. Thanks hun. xxx

Hi guys,
I'd just been told that I have an appointment, to have a injection put in my spine to try and break up some scar tissue.
Hopefully I will be ok to do the live show. But I wanted to let you all know, just in case we have to change the date.
I'm so sorry for this, but I'm sure you can understand. xxx

Corinne wrote: "I've never read Pride and Prejudice but want to, should I read the hard copy first or should I listen to the audiobook?"

It's totally your choice hun.
I first watched the BBC mini series (the one with Colin Firth) first. Then I read it then listened to it.
But I honestly can't say which is better because they're all amazing. I'd say just pick one and go with it, and if you feel it isn't working for you switch.
The latest audible version is one of the best I've found audiobook wise.
Sorry I can't be better help. xxx

Me either, I love the language of Pride and Prejudice to much to speed it up. Wow listening to it every few months, thats a lot. but I understand why, It's amazing :D xxx

I'm so sorry for the late reply.
Cool, I can't wait to hear what you thought of it and hopefully you can join us for the live show and ask us questions. :D xxx

Hi guys, I don't know what's going on but I'm not getting updates on when you guys post. I shall try and fix that.
I'm super sorry, but I see that you guys are taking good care of each other. :D

Robin, I love Rick Riordan! I'm super excited for Magnus Chase and the Hammer of Thor! I've preordered & can't wait to get my hands on it.
I pretty much always listen to audiobooks at 1.5 or 2.0. Just because some people really drag out their words and it's really hard to listen to.

Hi Christine,
High five for the marriage and kiddies, I'm engaged and staying that way till we can afford a wedding. (Why are they so expensive?!?)
I enjoy reading middle grade too, but it seems to get looked over on BookTube quite a lot. But i'll read anything that peaks my interest really :) xxx

Hi Emily, BookTube is amazing! I've met so many great people and become close friends with a few :)
I hope we can live up to your expectations of a good book club, we are all new at this and any suggestions would be helpful. xxx

It's ok Robin, we're all new to this but hopefully we'll get the hang of it soon :) xxx

Corinne wrote: "When will we begin reading something and what will we read first?"

Hi, we're reading Room by Emma Donoghue this month. You can start whenever your ready. Brandee has already finished the book, while Cristi and myself have only just started. We'll be having a live show towards the end of the month so we can all get online and discuss the book. xxx
