December Book

For December, we read The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie. And by "we", I do not mean myself... I tried. I really did. I just couldn't get past the first couple of chapters. My sister said it took her the first seven to really get going, so I'll try again. I really will. And review it properly, because everyone else seemed to like it. Just...not now.

So. For January, we are reading The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society. It's been on my list since it first made the rounds on everybody's book club list. So I'm very excited. I promise I really will read this one!

Book club is just getting to be more and more fun. I sincerely love these women who I get to meet with. I love laughing and talking and generally having a good time. It's such a blessed respite from life to just be able to sit and talk and laugh and become better and better friends with them all. I'm so happy I started this!

Music for a Friday:

    I wish I knew how to skype.

    I wish I could see a pic of you in your Sunday ensemble.

  3. Ahhh... I feel loved! Even if I'm pretty holy ;) Thank YOU for starting the club. It really is great to relax and laugh with women. Teaching doesn't usually allow me time with adult women ;)

    Diane - me too!

    Shari - I tell you, if you were just a LITTLE less righteous, we might be better friends... :)

  5. I have Guernsey checked out from the library right now. I'm going to read it and pretend to be part of your club.
