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>?

Lol...once a date is set I will just read it a couple of days before we review it. I read so quickly and so many books (usually soaking in my bath at nighttimes) that if I read it too soon I will forget all about it before we review it.
