Book/reading club

[popsycal]

Would anyone like to be part of a reading group?
I need something to encourage me to read more regularly - i absolutely love to read but seem to have put it on the back burner recently....
want to get back to enjoying it again
I anyone is interested, we could agree on a book (easier said than done, I suspect!)
read it then discuss....
hmmmmmmm
anyone>?

Oooh can I join too, I have read this book and would love the excuse to read it again. Thanks

all are welcome...but why cant i get into the first chapter!?!?

btw spelling and typing errors are totally allowed...
just watch apostrophes...... but thats another thread started by me!!!!

My book arrived this morning. Very impressed with how quick that was. For a used copy it is in really good condition too. Will start it tonight in bed I think.

are you talking erabout divine secrets of the ya-yas sisterhood - soory am typing with one hand and can't manage uppercase, large flu-ey baby sleeping on my chest

Yes, that's the one.

Amazon have apparently dispatched the book today, so it may arrive tomorrow, but more likely the 29th. I ordered the Red Tent too (I'm a sucker for buying books) and am currently really enjoying Owen Meany. My baby is poorly today as well, so we are having lots of dozey cuddles and I am reading (not right now, obviously!)

good, count me in too

I started it last night - it's really good!

why cant i get into it?!

Thought i'd join so ordered (yestaerday) Ya Ya second hand from amazon, never ordered 2nd hand one before but thought i'd give it ago. Whilst on i ordered The Red tEnt & Owen Meany, both new copies. The ones from Amazon have arrived this morning ...about 18 hours after they were ordered!! Of course the one i'm really waiting for will be chugging it's way via Royal mail or parcel farce. But Amazon & Business Post did an amazing job.

has yours arrived?

It came this morning - hopefully I will have the chance to read it - fist 3 chapters wasn't it? - on time. But I want to finish Owen Meny first - it is great!

Oh no, 4 I see. OK.

Have you seen this? Might be useful....?

I've read the first chapter but I didn't get into it enough in the first chapter and now I've got to muster up the enthusiasm from some where. I just don't understand the lead character at all.
Hopefully I'll get to grips with it a little better after a couple more chapters.

bekki i feel excatly the same as you....cant get past the first few pages

i am still really struggling to get going..worried that i will be no whewre near the set chapters by 29th!!!
eek
what a bad role model hey!

AAAARGH!!! I am really frustrated, I know I have this book somewhere, but can I bloomin find it!! Hopefully if I can get to the library tomorrow I'll be able to grsb a copy and read really fast and catch up

How is everyone else doing with this book....?
I am being totally honest here - am considering not reading it

I have read the first 3 chapters now. Not really "into" yet though but will kepp going as I paid for it I have read good reviews for it so hoping it is just the beginning is a bit slow.

I have to say that I haven't joined this book club because I read the first couple of chapters and I couldn't get into it.

I read it a couple of years ago and it was .... OK. Wouldn't break my neck to read it again but worth perservering if , if , if , can't really think of a reason

I'm trying to finish a book that was in a Lucky Dip offer from The Book People (it's a bit dire but I've come this far I may as well finish it) otherwise I might join you, I'm no good unless I can get into the story right away though. I will keep an eye on this thread and see what you are all reading next time.

read chapter one
hmmmm
