Congrats Amy! It is nice when you win one that keeps you interested!

Kelly wrote: "Just started Storm Front, first book in The Dresden Files Series. Not even through the first chapter and already enthralled!"

Sounds like an interesting premise for a book. Can't wait to see your review!

Hello and welcome to the group Matthew! Hope that you enjoy it!

Hello and welcome to Ayman and Elizabeth! I hope that you enjoy the group!

Hello and welcome to the group Hodan! I hope that you enjoy it!

That is actually a great idea Jim. Business cards are a perfect size and good advertising if you happen to leave it somewhere!

I have read most of the Peabody series and really enjoyed those. She has a ton of books which most are basically mysteries.

I like Elizabeth Peters, a nice cozy to read.

Debbie wrote: "I'm also reading Gone With The Wind."

Woah, that should be keeping you busy!

No kidding! Might have to avoid those!

Right now, I'm reading A Town Like Alice for my IRL bookclub and I'm enjoying it so much. I have never read any Neville Shute before and I'm really enjoying the way he writes.
I'm also reading The White Queen but it mainly sits by my bed where I read it when I'm trying to get sleepy! Not that it is boring, by any means.

Debbie wrote: "It helps to make notes as you read."

That would be a good idea.

Never knew that McD's gave out bookmarks. Do they have scratch and sniff ones that smell like french fries? YUM!

I did not realize that this was a prequel to the original story. It was actually the 6th book written according to Goodreads blurb. I read The lionThe Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, but don't remember much about it. I did see the movies though.

The children's group read for September.

Debbie wrote: "I'd like to add The Yearling to the list of possibilities."

That sounds great! How about for next month? We would have To Kill a Mockingbirdand The Yearling.

Laura wrote: "That's what was so special about this book, for me... Edmond (to an extent) begins to reign in his revenge plots because he fears he will lose his humanity to his vengeance. It's not just a novel a..."

Well put Laura.

Hello and welcome to Razvan, Mickey, and Carol. Hope that you all enjoy the group!
