Hello fellow readers!
Our selection for October's book club is (drumroll please) The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini .
The Optional Book is: Angry Housewives Eating Bon Bons: A Novel - (Mar. 29, 2005) by Lorna Landvik
It has been requested that we vary the day of the bookclub, to help people attend that wouldn't be able to on Thursday. Tuesday October 26th at 7pm is the date for the next book club, unless a majority of people have a strong preference against it. Dessert/Wine/Beer will be provided - I'm looking forward to hosting!!
Megan hopefully you and your new little one will be able to join us, even if you don't touch the book -- we would all love to see you if your up for it then.
Directions to my house should be in your email
If I missed anyone in the email, please let me know so I can forward it to them
Looking forward to our next meeting
Susan
For Moms interested in a book club made up of serious readers that want to go beyond parenting books!

Our meeting this past week was at the Elkhart Library. We met in a study room on the 4th floor and discussed The Catcher in The Rye, Franny and Zooey and Mrs. Perfect.
We scored as such:
Mrs Perfect 4 1/2 Stars out of 5!
The Catcher in the Rye 3 1/2 Stars
Franny and Zooey 3 Stars
I am doing this from memory. Can someone let me know if I made an error. I do not know what I did with the sheet that I wrote our scores on for each book.
I think that we proved that we can make a good time anywhere! The library was fun and made a great alternate location!

This week we will meet at the Elkhart Library!
Thursday, September 22 we will meet at 6:30 at the Elkhart Public Library in Downtown Elkhart. The library closes at 9pm. Please bring any books you are willing to lend or give away for a book exchange.
Because of the layout of my home, it will be best for my kid's bedtime if we meet outside my home. I hope that this will be a good location for future meetings if others have similar issues!
I will be bringing some treats and drinks so we will still have a party at the book club! Thanks

Book Swap
At our last gathering, we discussed bringing books to share with each other. If you have books that you no longer wish to keep (or are willing to loan), please bring them with you to the next book club meeting.

Read one, two or all, but come to Book Club!
For the record, there are three books to read this month. All are fairly short. if you are unable to read all three, please come to book club anyway. We will have shorter discussions on each of them so you will not be out of the groove for long!
