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

Do you think if I sit here at my desk making gasping noises DH will bring me a large glass of wine - he's ignoring me so far.

PositiveAttitude · 30/05/2010 20:55

OK secret it is then.

I think we can put the next 2 points together:
Size/thickness of book and hardback/paperback?

LoveBeing34 · 30/05/2010 20:55

HOw dare he

HC1 · 30/05/2010 20:55

Shall we go for secret then and move on to suggesting our next books.

JasonIsaacsIsRatherGorgeous · 30/05/2010 20:55

I'm not bothered by thickness but no hardbacks.

LoveBeing34 · 30/05/2010 20:56

I'm easy on this one.

PositiveAttitude · 30/05/2010 20:56

jIIRG My DH has just humphed at having to get his own cup of coffee "bloomin MN!!!"

HC1 · 30/05/2010 20:56

Agree with JIIRG.

loler · 30/05/2010 20:56

One of the books I most enjoyed (the dragon tattoo one) was really long and thick but managed to read it more quickly than one of the shorter books that I didn't like. I think it would be a shame to limit the size

PositiveAttitude · 30/05/2010 20:57

I agree, some of the thicker ones have been the best reads and I have got through them quicker.

Postage for hard backs is expensive going abroad, so do we agree?

HC1 · 30/05/2010 20:58

agree

PositiveAttitude · 30/05/2010 20:58

LOL loler!! Psychic!!

JasonIsaacsIsRatherGorgeous · 30/05/2010 20:59

Agreed.

PositiveAttitude · 30/05/2010 20:59

Closed until we have at least one complete, trouble free cycle

Do you think thats going ot be rude, or will it be ok.

Also, if anyone posts that they want to join us, Shall I just post a polite, but firm message to look elsewhere.

Yes yes to closed clique (get me, I'm in a click!).

No to hardbacks.

Do I have time to run upstairs and get my books?
