Do it! I just joined 2 months ago. You won't feel awkward or out of place at all.

Jackie (jackpurdy) | 120 comments Yes, please do! It's very chill/informal! Hope to see you Sunday! :)

Emily | 266 comments Sorry I missed guys hope it went well. I work nights and slept late :/ Too bad cause I read the book this month.


message 604: by Jackie (new)

Jackie (jackpurdy) | 120 comments It was a good group and good discussion! We talked about our next meeting and decided that since Nov/Dec months are always a little weird with the holidays, that we'd do an in-betweener meetup on Sunday, Dec. 14 @ Genuine Joe, 2pm. That way we're not bumped right up against Thanksgiving or Christmas holidays.

So plan to talk about November's books as well as December's if you get to them!

Catrina Bell (catrinabell) | 16 comments Sorry I missed yall yesterday (babysitting nephew)! I actually read the book this month and would have loved to discuss it - most of it I liked, some of it I didn't. Overall, I thought a good choice - such a different world! I'll be out of town Dec. 14th, but hope to see yall next year :)


Alana ~ The Book Pimp (loonyalana) | 124 comments My husband's schedule is currently in flux, so I'm uncertain, but going to try and make it.

Jackie (jackpurdy) | 120 comments HEEEEEYYY! Just a reminder that we have a meetup scheduled for this Sunday Dec. 14 @ Genuine Joe, 2pm. Since we didn't have a meetup last month we'll be talking about the November pick, the December pick, and whatever else we want to! ALSO, feel free to bring books for a book swap! See you all there!

Marcela Reyna | 31 comments Hey there, not sure if there are any Richelle Mead fans out there but she will be at book people 2/22 at 2:00 pm for signing the ruby circle. I'll be going if anyone would like to join.

Not doing the puppy bowl, lol, but I will be watching Downton Abbey!

Hey, question for you guys! Have you heard of Austin Panic Room and/or Puzzle Room Austin? (austinpanicroom.com, puzzleroomaustin.com)
You basically get together a group of people who get locked in a room, and have to solve a series of puzzles or mysteries in one hour to get out. I've heard it's really fun, as long as you aren't claustrophobic, and I wonder if anyone is interested in getting a group together to try it? Panic Room is downtown, Puzzle Room is on the North side (Anderson Lane), but they cost the same. Panic Room can take different sized groups, but Puzzle room requires 10, so groups may be joined if they aren't large enough. Has anyone done this before?

Oooh I had heard of the concept but didn't realize there were some in Austin! I used to play the crap out of point and click games.

That sounds amazing! I'm in if y'all want to. It looks like both have minimums, though the Puzzle Room will let you go in with any number if need be.


message 630: by Catrina (new)

Catrina Bell (catrinabell) | 16 comments I've done Austin Panic Room and it was AMAZING!!! They have two different sized rooms - 8pp max and 12ppl max. I did the 8 person room. They switch the themes/clues every few months. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! I would be down to do this again if we did the bigger room (otherwise I can't do a room I've already done).

Puzzle Room sounds cool. I had never heard of it before now but I would love to do it!


message 631: by Sarah (new)

Sarah (sflanagan19) | 127 comments The puzzle rooms sound really cool! Unfortunately I don't live in Austin so I really only come into town occasionally, particularly for our hangouts :-) So I probably won't be able to join in...but let me know if you get a group together and when you're going!


message 632: by Heather (new)

Heather | 175 comments Maybe we'd be able to go after 1 of our hangouts.


message 633: by Emily (new)

Emily | 266 comments Yes this would be awesome! Is anyone having trouble finding the main this month? I can only find it on amazon paperback for $9. If everyone is having this problem maybe we can agree to read the alt or pick our own alt?


message 634: by Emily (new)

Emily | 266 comments What about this as our alt? The Professional It was suggested on the forum


message 635: by Katie (new)

Katie (katie_jones) | 348 comments FYI: Austin Public Library has a digital version of Story of O that you can download to your kindle for free (or get the free kindle ap on your phone/devices), AND also has a dowloadable version of the audiobook.

If you don't plan on reading it, I understand. It's horrid, but makes for good discussion.

APL also has the professional, so I'll look for that too!

That's a great idea! Then maybe Sarah could go too...if it's not running too late for her to drive back to College Station.

Should we try for that? Puzzle room would be on Anderson Lane anyway. They have a 2 p.m. (if we wanted to go before) or a 6 p.m. if we want to go right after. Open to 10 people.


Alana ~ The Book Pimp (loonyalana) | 124 comments Katie wrote: "Heather wrote: "Maybe we'd be able to go after 1 of our hangouts."

I'm terribly interested, but have too much going on this month to do it. Besides, my husband just informed me yesterday that apparently Sundays are wiped out for the forseeable future by changing his schedule without even consulting me. So, now, I am in charge of the kids every Sunday. Not a happy camper at all.

I was thinking about going to the Richelle Mead signing this month, since I'll be in town, and 6pm is a little late for me (since it'll probably take at least an hour or two)...could we do it next month instead? Or you guys could go without me, of course.

Re: Emily, I was able to get the book through my library, but I'd be open to reading an alt for our meetup. The Professional would be good! What does everyone else think?


message 639: by Emily (new)

Emily | 266 comments I found the pdf since the book is so old. We'll see how far I get. :)

Well, that's disappointing! I bet we can find a day. We've also done a game night that we could do again, and everyone is of course invited.


Miss_Tessa_Melissa | 88 comments I've been totally out of the loop here for months. (Trying to change that) However, I would like to say if there is going to be any puzzle room action, I want in!

I would love to do a game night again! So fun :) And Melissa, we would love to see you back soon!


message 643: by Heather (new)

Heather | 175 comments Would anyone be free to have a game night this Wednesday or Thursday?


message 644: by Katie (new)

Katie (katie_jones) | 348 comments Wish I could, but I have my Mom visiting :P


message 645: by Heather (new)

Heather | 175 comments I don't think I'll be able to make it to this, but it seems like fun.
