A Book Group of girlfriends who love to get together, discuss books and learn from one another.
Reading gives us someplace to go, when we have to stay where we are!

We will meet again on Friday April 8th 10:00-11:30 at my place! The book we will be discussing is Recovering Charles by Jason F. Wright :

In our first meeting we decided Fridays would work better than Tuesdays. So we will be meeting on the 2nd Friday of April and May. Then we will take June, July and August off and start back on schedule in September.
Our book for May will be The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Society by Mary Anne Shaffer:

Here is a schedule of what we have so far:
April: DOMESTIC FICTION Recovering Charles by Jason F. Wright (Jenny McKinney)
May: DESERT ISLAND The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Society by Mary Anne Shaffer (Debbie Franklin)
September: HISTORICAL FICTION (Jan Lakey)
October: CLASSICS (Kristine Hymas)

Starting our Book Group!
I am so excited about starting our group! It is going to be a much needed break from the routine for many of us. Friendships will be started and strengthened as we read and discuss a variety of books and articles and maybe some movies too!
I thought a great place to start would be to read some different ways other book groups start and at our first meeting we can discuss how we want our group to work!
Go to this site (you may have to copy and paste) and scroll down to external links for some great links to get you started! Feel free to find some info on your own too!
