WE STARTED A BOOK CLUB!

My wonderful sister-in-law, Beth, and I have been tossing around the idea of starting a book club. We have talked about it for ages and daydreamed about how much fun it would be to gather together with other book lovers and discuss our favorite topic-BOOKS. We've read the same books before, and it's neat to be able to go back and forth about what we loved and hated about the book.

Last week we decided to officially start a club! So far we have 4 members: Beth, myself, and our friends-Steph and Lisa. Beth, who frequently visits Barnes and Noble's website for the scoop on the latest and greatest books, has chosen our first book. It's called "The Physick Book of Deliverance Dane". I started it last night, and it's very captivating.
Here is the book along with my "tools" that I need whenever I read. If I come across a word that I don't know the definition to I HAVE to find out the meaning. Usually the laptop is nowhere nearby so I write down the page number and the word and look up the meaning later.

Lets hope 'book club' doesn't interfere with 'house keeper club'. JK - love you!
