Welcome to GR as well as TNBBC Heather!
Hi Heather! Good luck in your new home!! This group is really international. I'm in Rome and there are lots of other members spread all over the world.
It's a great way to keep up with new books and (re)discover old ones too!

Hi, I am Shoshanna in California and I have just joined this group. After reading through all of your posts I am excited to find so many like-minded readers!I absolutely don't understand alot of what you talk about (ie;'points') but I'm willing to learn.
I just finished 'The Strain' by Guillermo del Toro and Chuck Hogan and 'Dark Places' by Gillian Flynn.
Both of these were excellent in their own right. Took a few days to digest.
I read the 'Twilight' series before I gave them to my 11 year old daughter to read.
I suprised myself by liking them, and was stunned to find the hopeless romantic of my younger days still alive... bittersweet.
What do I do next in the club?
Hi there Heather and Shoshanna *waves hello*

There is no "do next" really, just jump in on the threads that interest you most, hang out and get to know us, and let us get to know you too!!!

Is there a chosen book each month to read? Or books?
Hi Heather and Suzanne,Glad to have you both in the group. Heather good luck in your move.
Suzanne there is two books for the group read each month. Lori puts up a post towards the end of the month so we can nominate books we would like to read. Then we get to vote on which ones we might want to read. Then at the starting of the month we can read and discuss the books.
Thank you,Lisa Juliana, I am excited to see what's coming up. I tend to stick to my favorite subject matter and don't venture out as much as I should.This will be a welcome challenge!
yeah...that's what I love about this group, you get a nice variety of books to choose from and read. :~)
Hi there, just joined Goodreads this weekend after reading about it in Oprah, and found your group today. Looks like fun!I am a South African living in Dubai. Hiya..
Hi there,I'm also new and slightly embarrassed/nervous. I've never participated in group discussions, but this seemed too good to pass up.
Hi Michelle,Welcome to the group!! Don't be nervous everyone here is really nice. Just jump right in and pretty soon this will feel like home. :~)

It is nice to have a place to catalogue your reads, and want-to-reads and to network with people who share a similar interest. I have found this group wonderful in that while it might offer suggestions of various books to read, you are not committed to, nor out of the loop if you decline to read a particular book at a specific time and on someone else's time frame. The great thing about this book club is that you can take it to Germany with you!

Goodreads is getting some press in Oprah, really? Thats a good thing :)
I talked to a woman who's husband is stationed in germany the only thing I am not looking forward to is it takes longer for us to get books over there :( I just hope my kindle works!!!
Oh yeah! I forgot to say My husband and I are stationed in Tx! :D
