Hello, My name is Dominique, I am a keen reader and I just find this idea of a book club fabulous. I was too late for joining the last thread s I guess the best is to start a new one. I am a mother of 2 (3 years and a great reader of 12) My house is full of books (in french and english.....
Well I hope to meet you soon
have a nice day
Dominique

DH posted my book to Flying cloud this morning so should be there by Wednesday.

walkthedinosaur · 02/02/2010 16:11

Jamais gave your book to the nice lady at La Poste tonight so it should be with you in a couple of days. Happy reading.

walkthedinosaur · 02/02/2010 16:12

Almost forgot - any news yet FC? I love waiting for baby news makes me feel all warm and cuddly inside.

jamaisjedors · 02/02/2010 18:57

Great - I won't start anything else then wtd.

I agree about FC - newborn by proxy, lovely!

Hi WTD my son has had a stomach bug again - always seems to happen when I have to read a book to send on so I haven't had any time to read. I should be ready to post by Saturday at the latest. Hope this is okay. If not let me know and I won't finish it and post it on.

PositiveAttitude · 03/02/2010 19:42

HC1 Hope your DS feels better soon. I think it is WTD who is jinxed so that she doesn't actually get a book! Although I shouldn't say that too loud, cos I dont have a good track record with getting them here, either!

Wiseoldelf - I posted off to you today, so should arrive in a couple of days time. I hope you enjoy this one as much as I did.

LBAM - Have you posted yet? Just coming to the end of a book, so wondering whether to start another or not.

Everyone sending and receiving OK this month? Come on ladies, we can do this!

loler · 03/02/2010 22:54

HC1 - I posted yesterday so you should get the book really soon. Hope your son's better.

By next month we should have this thing sussed!

flyingcloud · 04/02/2010 09:16

Hello - still here and no baby! 40w tomorrow... but as the French ladies will know that doesn't mean much here.

My brain has turned to mush and I promise to post out my book today.

Thank you JamaisJeDors I have received your book.

Please send me going into labour vibes!!

HC1 · 04/02/2010 13:41

Thanks Loler received the book yesterday. Looking forward to reading it.

PositiveAttitude · 09/02/2010 07:08

Dum Dee Dum!

Well, has everyone else got a book this month yet?

I haven't!

LBAM are you out there? Any chance of the book coming my way soon?

flyingcloud · 09/02/2010 07:17

Hello,

Have to apologise as I only sent my book to LBAM yesterday, so she won't have received hers.

Again apologies.

Still waiting for the stork to deliver here

walkthedinosaur · 09/02/2010 07:20

No I haven't got a book yet either, hopefully will arrive in the next couple of days.

HC1 · 09/02/2010 08:38

WTD I sent your book last Thursday so hopefully it should be arriving any day now.

I am half way through this month's book so you should gt that one nice and early.

Helen

walkthedinosaur · 10/02/2010 14:03

Hi I received my book today and am looking forward to starting it tomorrow.

It's yours PA so it had better be a good one

PositiveAttitude · 10/02/2010 16:40

but hope you enjoy WTD.

Is it only me waiting now then?

cariboo · 10/02/2010 16:48

Haven't read the whole thread but suppose you've already got your 12 "lovely mums"? I live in French-speaking CH & would love to join a book club. Never done it before. Is there room for me? What are you reading?

cariboo · 10/02/2010 16:53

btw, getting English books down here with amazon.co.uk is cheap as chips. No tax, no duty, just postage.

PositiveAttitude · 10/02/2010 17:47

Cariboo - hello. We are well into month 3 now and although we did add a lady in on month 2 I think it would be a bit confusing now to add another in. I am really sorry to disappoint you. I hope there is another thread starting up that you will be able to join in with.

If anyone else has any ideas as to how we could add someone in, then feel free to let me know.

PositiveAttitude · 10/02/2010 18:35

Hang on Cariboo, sorry, maybe I was a bit hasty. Give me a while to see how we can get this to work and I will get back to you.

LoveBeingAMummy · 11/02/2010 16:04

FC - thanks got yours today.

PA - send yours yesterday, let me know when you have recived it safe and sound. Will probably take you a day to read

LoveBeingAMummy · 11/02/2010 16:05

PS FC - hope you are doing well either with or without bump

loler · 11/02/2010 19:51

Wiseoldelf - Thanks got the book, DH saw it on the side and asked why on earth I was reading that. He's such a book snob - am quite looking forward to starting it!

FC - any baby yet?

Wiseoldelf · 11/02/2010 19:54

Loler - hopefully you recieved the next book today. I haven't got round to posting a review for Lovebeingamummy's yet. I'll do it soon.

PA - recieved new book, read it in 2 days, LOVED it.
Again, I'll review when I've got through my neglected washing pile!

PositiveAttitude · 12/02/2010 18:30

Received the book today, thanks LBAM.;

cariboo · 12/02/2010 21:51
