Let's Talk

[Tiffany]

Hi! I know we are reading books and we talk that way but I wanted to touch base and get some of your thoughts.


What would you like to see change in the group?


Would you like me to put book ideals in the books shelf so you can look at them and choose from those?


Would you like to do a group skype, live chat in a chat room or call an 800 number to talk about books?

Would you like me to post a list of african american christian fiction authors so you can search for books for your own personal reading?

These are just some of the ideals I have and just want input or other great ideals from you :)

[BernieMck]

The 1-800 idea sounds interesting. Maybe it would gather more group participation.

The other ideas are good too, as long as we can still suggest books.

[BernieMck]

I meant as long as we can still suggest books.

[Lamarr]

I think a virtual book club would be neat periodically. Here are some ideas

Does everyone have google hangout ?



I will go ahead and add some books to the book shelf so everyone can look at them.

[Tiffany]

When is everyone's free days?

[Tiffany]

Also would you like to see any reading challenges?

[BernieMck]

Reading challenges would work. I am pretty flexible with time.

[BernieMck]

I do have a google account

[QUEENIE]

I wish there were more participation in the group.

I would like a live chat or call in number to discuss books.

I have google hangouts on my phone.

My free days will be weekends now that I have to go back to work on Tuesday.

I am in about 3 challenges right now.

[BernieMck]

I just realized that Google hangout is a app

[BernieMck]

Now I have it

[Tiffany]

Okay well if anyone wants to connect with me my email is tlgib14@gmail.com

[Micqualani]

Im free anytime till Sept 6th

[Tiffany]

I'm going to start posting the months in advance so that we can all have time to get the books and even decide if we want to do a series or two :)

[Karee]

I just joined the group and would love to use Google hangout to interact. I've been looking for a great book club.

[Tiffany]

Welcome Karee we are glad to have you!! What days are you available for hangout?

[Karee]

Weekends are good for me. The kids have me extra, busy during the week.

[Tiffany]

Okay that will work :)

[Tiffany]

I know I said Hangout but what about GroupMe so it can be continuous??? Let me know

[Karee]

I can try that, whatever works for everyone else.

[BernieMck]

I have to lookup GroupMe

[BernieMck]

GroupMe is a Microsoft group text. This works for me. I'm flexible so I'll let you all decide when.

[Tiffany]

okay I just downloaded it so I will be providing information shortly

[Tiffany]

can I have your email to add you to the group

I have Bernie already

[Tiffany]

The Group me is up and running Mickey, Karee, Queenie and Bernie should all have access!

[Tiffany]

I don't know if I said this before but I'll said it again. I'm all about being a group so if anyone wants to take the lead on a book discussion just let me know. We still have 3 months left for the year and don't want you guys to think I am the only one to pick the book or lead the discussions :)
