Lisa’s comments from the Should have read classics group.

Thanks, I'll take you up on that offer!

Thanks Laura! Looks good, can't wait for it.

Ha, don't think of it as pressure! Think of it as gentle shoves from lots of people, with lots of guilt!

Congrats Amy! That is just amazing! *as she grumbles into her coffee*

Hello and welcome to you Amanda! Number 100!

For those of you reading this, how do you like it so far?

Still, I had no idea that there was a limit on any of it. Thanks for the checking!

How did the movie compare to the book, Lisa?"

The disk arrived broken so I could not watch it. Must try again.

Shannon wrote: "I appreciate all the comments about reading things that you are not really enjoying. Going to start something new today! The Scarlet Pimpernel"

I hope that you enjoy it! I will pick mine up on Tuesday from the library!

I wonder if that means that I spend too much time on line."

Amazing how that starts to infiltrate parts of everyone's life.

Wow! Congrats Katherine! It looks like you have your summer reading ready to go!

Ah, well now I feel silly! LOL! Thanks for the clarification!

Beth, what is an IRL bookclub? Sorry if that sounds silly, but I don't know those acronyms.:(

Hello and welcome to the group Laura!

Really? Well, that is interesting to know! Might explain why I never win. I figured that it was part voodoo, how they pick the winners.

I have done that also, just pushed through the book, however it does taint my memory of that book. Hence the name of this club! Ha!

That might be a good idea, it is on the instant download so maybe I will try that. It is a very interesting book, but I was reading it as a buddy read in another club and it slowly died out. So now I have to brave it myself.:) Who knew 14th century monastatries could be so exciting?

I just finished and . Now I'm on to and still trying to finish . I'm beginning to think that TNOTR might fit into the category of "throw in the towel."

Maybe that is my problem, I hated book reports in school. Must be why I haven't won a giveaway in forever.

Hello and welcome to the group Allison.
