Welcome, friends!!

Hello from Ashlee and Shayla and welcome to our online Book Club!

While we each have had an unofficial book club going on for some time, recommending and receiving recommendations from our good friends, we wanted to have something more official to bring us together more often to discuss what we all love...reading! We have friends all over the place, so while we would love to meet physically and catch up and discuss the books we've been reading, an online edition is more practical.

Please join us and invite your friends. We will read a book a month and post discussions and questions at the end of the month for each other. Leave a comment here if you would like to join us and I will send you an invitation. We will all be contributors to the blog, so you can post whatever you'd like along the way, and we'll all take turns selecting books.

For our first month, we will be reading The Five People you Meet in Heaven by Mitch Albom. If you've already read it, stay tuned to help us discuss...

Happy reading!

  2. Hey this is great. I don't know that I'll be able to finish the books all the time, but it's worth a shot :)

  3. This is a good idea. I am the slowest reader so I am not sure if I can keep up but I will try. I mean I'm not a slow reader but I don't spend nearly enough time reading.

  4. I don't know if I could suggest a book, but I would like to read what is suggested. Not much of a reader, but if I get a good book I'm so there.
