“So, please, oh please, we beg, we pray, go throw your TV set away, and in its place you can install
... a lovely bookcase on the wall!"
I've threatened to do it, I've facebooked about it, I've thought about it and waited for other people to do it, and now I've decided I'm going to do it mah own self.
I'm starting a book club.
So this releases those of you who don't like to read (!?) or don't like to eat (!?) from reading further. Because my book club will involve BOTH. Eating and reading, preferably at the same time, are one of my pleasures in life. So yes, books and food.
And probably wine, too.
*snort* Probably, she says.
There will be wine.
And we'll not close it off from online friends. I will do a book club post every month, so that if you don't get to make it to the meeting, or if you live in Australia or Dubai or Great Britain or somewhere, you can still read and participate. And you can eat, too. Just not with me. :(
Sound good?
Poll Which book should we read?
If you'd like to make an informed choice, here are some links below, to peruse at your leisure.
The Night Circus
The Great Gatsby
The Paris Wife
The Casual Vacancy
Gone Girl
And this is the last time the book choices will be autocratic. Next month we'll take suggestions from the group and poll those.
The first meeting of the Literary Potluck Society will meet at my house, Sunday evening, February 3, 2013, at 6:00 p.m. Tell your friends. This will be a fun time. You don't wanna miss it.
