What should we read next?

[Kim, Wild-eyed Bibliomaniac]

O.K. we need to start thinking about our April group read genre. Anyone have any ideas?

[A.]

how about reading a favorite childhood story?

[Kim, Wild-eyed Bibliomaniac]

I like it. Anyone else have an other idea or is this good?

[Paul]

Sounds good to me. I will read an old and dear favorite... Follow My Leader or Don't Take Teddy.

[Kim, Wild-eyed Bibliomaniac]

Then it's settled. April is choose a child-hood favorite book.

In light of what is happening in May (read joys and concerns for details) I will not be participating in a group read. If you all would like to have one, please do so. I don't think I will have time to concentrate.

O.K., June is coming and what genre should we read next?

Historical fiction? Alternate history? Suggestions please.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I really LIKE the thought of an alternate history read!

[Kim, Wild-eyed Bibliomaniac]

Anybody have a problem with alternate history? Or should we just name that our June theme?

[A.]

Not sure what to read but it sounds ok to me

[Kim, Wild-eyed Bibliomaniac]

I already posted my pick. I decided on the first Temeraire book since it is an alternate history and a historical fiction in one.

O.K. July is almost here and we did not have a very strong participation for the June group read (Yes, Vulture, I know your local library system sucks). So, yesterday it came to me in a conversation with Vulture that maybe we should have a "re-read one of your favorite book" reads.

So for July, pick one of your favorite books, one of your go to books that you re-read so much you could and probably do, quote it.

O.K. folks, August is almost here and I'm looking for ideas. Should we keep up with the group read, or is this and exercise in futility?

[Kim, Wild-eyed Bibliomaniac]

O.K. people since nobody responded to this post for August,I am making some more changes to the group read. Since we cannot seem to get a genre together, so for now, the group read will be what ever you are reading and want to talk about.

If we keep having lack of participation.....

I have been internetless for the past few weeks...Since school has started for the fall I won't be doing much leisure reading until December.Texts come first!

[Kim, Wild-eyed Bibliomaniac]

Yes. learning comes first young lady! :)

[Betsy]

I'm reading "The Secret History" by Donna Tartt, but don't know if I want to talk about it yet. If I do, I'll post it.

[Kim, Wild-eyed Bibliomaniac]

Not a problem. If you wish to post about it, please post it in the "group read section".
