Cinnamon Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Ok, Christmas is over,so I think we should kickstart the book group again We will start with Chicklits choice 'Tell me your secret' by Diedre Purcell,to be read now & discussed at the start of MARCH (to give us all time),after which we will carry on through the list on the sticky above. If anyone would like to drop out,it would be really useful if you could let me know now,so that I don't have to chase you up for your reading choice in the following months,please Just drop me a pm,or let me know on this thread. For everyone still interested in participating,I will contact you a month or so before your book is due to be read. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dippy bird Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 only just seen this - count me in -I love chick lit!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 I'm in but don't have a copy of the book yet, just off to the library. I have been gradually gathering the previous books and have just found one of the early books which I will read too. The book club gave me 2 of my best reads last year, The Kite Runner and The Book Thief. Edited to say it is showing as available in my local library, so off I go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docsquid Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 My copy arrived this morning. It is completely different from anything I'd normally read, so I'll be really looking forward to trying it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 I have read quite a few books that I would not normally read as a result of the book group and other recomendations on here and I have enjoyed pretty much every one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seagazer Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 Thats why I like the book club, it makes you read books you probably wouldn't look at otherwise. I know I wouldn't have read the Book Thief otherwise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted January 18, 2010 Author Share Posted January 18, 2010 I am so glad to have had some response,as I truly thought I was flogging a dead horse here. thanks guys - I had better get on Amazon & order that book,then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tina C Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 I'm not on here much these days but will try and join in. And if you want to run a vote on the favourite read of the past last year I have a little (little) prize for the person who chose that book - as I was the beneficiary last year I thought it might be nice to do it again?

dippy bird Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 I ordered mine off amazon for 1p !! Looking forward to reading it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura & CTB Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 Thats why I like the book club, it makes you read books you probably wouldn't look at otherwise. I know I wouldn't have read the Book Thief otherwise. Very true and I'm glad you liked the Book Thief (I've lost count of how many times I've read it now). I'm always a bit nervous of recommending books to people in case I'm just a weirdo and it's only me that likes it Anyway - count me in too please Cinnamon, am off to order the next couple of books now!
