Such Fun

We had a great time at book club this month. We discussed Ender's Game, discussed the next few months of meetings, discussed voting early and then played games til about 11:00 pm. We wish you could have all been with us.

NOVEMBER 21st Friday
We will be going to the movie Twilight at the Jordan Landing theaters.
It's opening night so we need to preorder the tickets. If you are going to go, please RSVP with $8.00 to Annette by November 5th. We will be meeting at Annette's house to carpool (time to be announced). We'd love to have you all come so if money is an issue, please call Jen.

DECEMBER 18th Thursday
Our annual Christmas Party is to be celebrated again!!!! We're all very excited. We want to do a potluck soup dinner (sign-up to come) and a book exchange. So bring a copy of your favorite book to be bid on with points like the service auction.
This will be at Jessica's house at 6:30 pm.

JANUARY 23rd Friday
We will be meeting at Sheri's house if available at 7:30 pm to discuss Papa Married a Mormon. If you have a copy of this book, please leave a comment so we know how many are out there. This book may be more difficult to find and we are hoping that those that have copies will be willing to share. Angela has a copy that she would be willing to share.

Coming Soon
On the side bar of this blog will soon be added the rotation of hosting. Check to see when you have been listed on the rotation and see if you have any conflicts. Please let Jen or Angela know as soon as you can about these. If you don't find you're name on there and would like to host, please leave a comment or contact Jen or Angela about being added to the rotation. Thanks.

Changes for October

We have been informed that Sheri is going to be out of town the night of book club this month. Therefore, Jen has offered her house as the meeting place for this month's book club. We'll discuss the schedule of hosting at book club.

Just a reminder that book club will be on Friday October 17th at 7:30 pm. We will be discussing Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card and Annette will be leading the discussion. Because we aren't going to be reading books for the next couple months, we will wait and submit in January.

If you have questions, please comment, email, or call Angela or Jen. Thanks.

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.
