Would Anyone Object?

Would anyone object to me changing my book to this? I am patiently waiting for my copy of Quaker Summer to come in, and got hooked on this in the meantime. I will admit that it is a bit longer than The Good Earth, but it is impossible to put down. If anyone objects, that would be fine with me...we can still read my original pick.
PS: I can't find Quaker Summer anywhere, and had to special order it...does anyone have a copy they are finished with? LOVE TO YOU ALL!!!

Happy Valentine's Day



Friendship is a blessing it's the best you have to share,


The talents and the wisdom, the capacity to care...
It's being there to lend support, whatever needs arise,


It's making sure that others know they're special in your eyes...
Friendship is a blessing, and, to all who have a friend,


It's one of the most precious gifts that life could ever send.






Have a great day!




XOXO

It's February!

Hello Ladies!




Posted by Julie :)

Reminder that the first book club of the year is coming up at Connie's!



If you have not picked up a copy there is still time and a new copy back at the library- mine- which sadly I had for over a week before I realized their is just no way I will read it in time...SORRY Connie!!....



So better to get it back to the library for someone else to read :)



Please let Connie know if you will make it- she will send an email about the time etc.


New book club members?????


For anyone who has a friend who wants to join book club, please send me their info
Name, B-day and email address
so I can get them added to the site info etc
so they can start checking the
site
so they can get or reserve a copy of
The Pillars of the Earth

because really, April is just a few weeks away
and 1026 pages is not light reading.
..it is heavy...

although the paperback version slims that
page total to 976
which is more like light reading...

But don't be intimidated by this monster book-
it is said to be a fantastic book and everyone I have come across that has read it loved it!

Not as much as they loved say....

The Sound and the Fury....

but pretty darn close!!!

Thanks to Kristen , who is always challening us

to step outside our comfort zone

in reading and who is hosting this particular book via satelite from Texas!
Yee Haw!
I had to post this picture since it one of many great pictures of Kristen - and we miss her smiling face :)



XOXO
