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

If I sort the rota out this week, then let you all know who is posting to who. I will also start up the new thread cos we want to lose MMdomi entirely, dont we?

PositiveAttitude · 30/05/2010 21:17

Go ahead with books

Mamondomi · 30/05/2010 21:18

So put the names and addresses in a discussion topic or send you an email?

Obviously it doesn't really matter because I'm only going to send on one rubbish book and then hang to loads that you send to me, but I like to be precise about these things, because as you can see from my original post last year I'm very reliable.

agree we ashould still be lovely

jamaisjedors · 30/05/2010 21:18

Yes, I have one more book to come I think?

I have LBAM's book which I will post straight back to her regardless, still no sign of Cariboo.

V. sorry for those whose books may have vanished, although could be retrievable, last month after several emails I did get a response and she is a regular I think.

LoveBeing34 · 30/05/2010 21:18
