Alice's Adventures in Wonderland

[neuroticsquirrl]

I think we got off to a fairly good start. Don't forget that you can still join into  the " A Rose for Emily" discussion here.

Let's make our first book a fun and easy one! Taking a cue from the suggestion post (which you can add to here), this month's book will be Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carrol.

I have no suggestions as to when but I'm excited. Alice's Adventures in Wonderland along with Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There are part of my yearly reads. Huzzah!

Yay, my suggestion won!
How does this work exactly? We are supposed to read the monthly book and....?

Oh, I see you edited the post, OP. How fast are we supposed to read? I read a bit at night, because I am mostly busy with university. Why dont why make goals like... so and so many chapters a week or something, I dunno.

What do you think good goals for this book will be?

I read this book when I was 10. I was hoping, when I suggested it, that we could have goals for reading together to then discuss, ask questions, share interpretations, references, etc.

Something like... reading 'til chapter 7 for the end of this week (that's more or less 1/4 of the book; this way it'll last us a month), then discussing in a post, specially what the poster noticed the most but also with the possibility for the rest of us to post there questions and ideas.

I am actually new here, do you have any rules or do you have anything that you always do?

I'm glad this got chosen, it's one of my favorites. :-)

It's also available as a free app from BeamItDown software on the iPhone/iPod Touch. Oh, and looks like there's also a free version from Classique. I have book apps from both of them- BeamItDown is a continuous scroll and Classique has pages.
