Here are a few updates for our meet. We will meet at Olive Garden at 11:00 for lunch and book discussion. We will then go to the 2:15 matinee of TWILIGHT at the Regal Cinema. As we said before, it is advisable to buy your ticket now. This can be done at Fandango.com.
With each month's book I will post the bio. of the book chooser. This month that is Becca:
I wanted to start this book club to combine some of the things I enjoy most out of life, my friends, my family, and reading. My sister was actually the inspiration to this when last summer we would stay up late and use up many hours of the day talking about books we were both reading. Hearing different viewpoints on the same book was quite enjoyable. None of this reading was guilt-free however, since we were both preparing for big tests. Things are finally calming down in my life. I am finished with residency, finished with “The Big Test” (assuming I passed), and I am getting settled into a new job that I love. I picked The Other Boleyn Girl simply because it received great reviews and I have wanted to read it for quite sometime. I do enjoy a good historical fiction. Last book I read was Pride and Prejudice because it is my sister’s favorite book. I can see why, it is quite good. The current book I am reading (again) is Gone with the Wind, which happens to be my favorite book. We are actually doing a favorite book trade, which isn’t really fair on her part since it is 950 pages. Just a little more about myself: I am the wife of 10 years to a great man who is supportive enough to put me through 8 years of school and 3 years of residency. We have a beautiful fiery red-headed little girl named Loralei. My favorite music is alternative rock and 80s. My favorite color is red. My favorite food is spaghetti. I love being outdoors. Lastly, for fear of getting too wordy, I am truly excited to share books with my friends and just as excited to get to know new people through this experience. HAPPY READING !!!
