Sharon’s comments from the Words with Nerds group.

Hey guys, sorry for the lack of posting and commenting. A lot has been going on with the holidays and such. Also I have actually kinda moved (its complicated... stupid jobs and such) to Vegas and am bunking at my sisters. Because of this I am hijacking her computer and well... her house... so Im not sure how reliable I can be for a while. But please feel free to keep the discussions going and start new threads. I will talk with Amanda and Sara as soon as we are able to work out schedules and books and so forth and let you know ASAP.

Alright guys, here is the official thread for Middlesex which was the pick this month from the wonderful Sara. So please feel free to leave any comments or discussions for the book here.

I've read the next two books and she hasn't gone through it yet. Either that or I just wasn't paying attention lol

I do too! Although to me the Gentry world is a little confusing with all of the folding in on itself and stuff. I always wondered how the Gentry knew where they were going... like do they have a 6th sense or what?? I would be lost and wondering for pretty much ever.

Lol I agree. It was very predictable but I think handled well.

I think it's not really that humans are so awesome. I think it has to do with see sees the gentry as trying to take over her world. Also so was raised by people that had bad experience with the gentry so it was pretty much ingrained into her. I can say that as the books go on she has to deal with this more and more. Do you think there's a way to make it not so generic? or has everything been done?

I KNOW RIGHT!! I mean I get it because its so ingrained in her to hate Dorian's kind and Kiyo is only half, like her, but he's such a whiny man! What do you think about Eugene and her struggle with the human/gentry thing??

I'm a Dorian fan. I just don't like Kyo. He just seems whiny and mundane. ( I'm trying to not give too much away because I can't remember exactly what happens lol Amanda still has my book lol).

Ok so here we can discuss Storm Born and all that went on. If you do want to discuss something here know that this is a SPOILER zone. So if you haven't finished the book and you don't want to know what happens then DONT READ THESE! lol

Rebecca Im going to start another thread that we can put spoilers in so we can talk about this cause I agree :D

Oh no Andrea not that!!! :) wait... Did you get the fourth one too???

Hey guys so it looks like were going to push back the due dates of the books. we're going to keep it at two picks per month but instead of discussing it every two weeks we're just going to discuss both books on the same hangout at the end of the month. We think that this will be easier on everyone to be able to read around work and school etc. We'll let you now an exact date as soon a we can collaborate on schedules. I hope yall don't mind!!

YAY!!!!! im glad you like it :D

Alright guys Ive got everything figured out for our hangout. For those of you that are interested Sara, Amanda, and I will be doing a live Google Hangout to discuss our books when were done reading them. It will air on both Google+ (as far as I understand it) and on YouTube on my channel. Ill post a link to it before the Hangout (again once I figure out how :D So if you know feel free to tell!!). We hope yall will like the discussions and wed like to continue them on here as well. Alrighty then Ill let yall know links and stuff by Wednesday night!!! Thanks again for reading with us!!!

Lol it's fine! Hopefully we can get a good discussion going on here that you can add to anytime.

Awesome :)

You can download a free nook app for iPod and I think your computer. I have one on my iPod though I don't use it often. I like real books lol

AWESOME!! Let me know what you think!
