Welcome to the new year, 2012! And it is hoped it lives up to all your expectations. The working year has commenced for most of us and it is back to routine once again. This pleases some, whilst others may cringe.All I know is I am looking forward to our first book club meeting of the year. Our titles have been selected and they look very tantalising. Please check them out.
Our first meeting has been changed from the scheduled Wednesday 1 Feb evening to Thursday 2 Feb due to some unforeseen work commitments. Hopefully this will not impact too many members, but sincere apologies if it does. We should be back to normal from then on.
I'd love to hear what great titles you read over the holidays? If you'd like to share, please add a comment. Some people tell me they've had difficulties leaving me their comments. Just so you are aware, for security purposes, you need to be a member of google, so just take a minute to sign up. It's free and then you'll be able to leave me your messages. I really enjoy reading them.
This blog is also a great way to discuss the books, so if you have any interesting things to share about the current book you are reading, write a comment and we can start a discussion.
A couple of club members have told me they have had trouble obtaining The Umbrella Club. I've done some research and here are a couple of suggestions: Try Avid Reader at West End or the State Library Bookstore. I got my copy at the Brisbane Writers Festival back in October. Another online place that is selling the book for under $30 is fishpond.com.au Click on the link then type in the title and author and bob's your uncle!
Well I look forward to seeing all our members next Thursday.
So, until then...
happy reading,
Deb
