After the meeting

At the September book club a lot of things were discussed. Angela proposed having a rotation schedule for hosting and submitting. She has a record of who did what for the last year and has suggested that we make up a rotation schedule based on that. She also suggested that whoever is hosting should submit which would simplify things. Everyone there thought it was a great idea and so we are going to try to put a schedule on the website so everyone can see when they will be hosting and submitting. If there are any conflicts we can rearrange things. We'd like to start the rotation right away beginning with Sheri if she is okay with it.

For October Book Club, this is what is happening.

October 17th @ Sheri's house

Therefore Sheri will be submitting

Annette will be leading the discussion on Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card

November our regular book club night would be on Fri the 21st which is the opening day of the movie "Twilight". A lot of people want to see the movie and it was suggested that we go as a book club to the movie instead of having a discussion night. Everyone there thought it was a great idea. More details will be planned at the next book club meeting and we will want to pre purchase the tickets so we will make sure to get everyone in to the same movie.

December Thursday Dec 18th will be our annual Christmas Party. It will be at Jessica's house again and we will probably have a pot luck dinner and book exchange again. More details will be planned at the next book club too.

Because of this we won't be discussing a book again until January when we will read Jessica's submission of Papa Married a Mormon by John D. Fitzgerald.

September's book is The Screwtape Letters, by CS Lewis at Angela's house.

Twilight Breaking Dawn

So, Stephenie Meyer's new book in the Twilight series, Breaking Dawn became available to the public on August 2nd and many people are deeply intrenched in the unfolding drama. I haven't gotten it yet, but have arranged to borrow from a friend who is already halfway through it. So I hope to have it soon.

Here is a link to the official Stephenie Meyer website which tells about her new book without spoilers. http://stepheniemeyer.com/breakingdawn.html You can also check out other of her books and the film which is coming out December 12, 2008.

If you all have read it by book club night August 21st, I'm sure we can take part of the time to discuss this book too. Have fun reading!
