The Official Dis Book Club

[agotta]

Ok, so we all wanted one, so let's start one!!

We need to decide on our first book. Any suggestions? (closest smilie to reading!! lol)

 

[Ava83]

Okay would this be for Feb or March? Maybe we should try to theme the book around the month. A book about love (any kind for Feb) or an Irish/Roman (ides of March) for March etc. That way any kind of book can be used!

April Baseball...

 

[agotta]

March would be good. Since we are already halfway through February.

i'm not in a book club, and if I have time, may try to join the DIS one, but, I have a great book to suggest! I just finished reading it, and its actually about 5 neighbors/friends in a book club!
Angry Housewives Eating Bon Bons
It is such a good book!

 

[CharityLynn]

I don't really have any idea either but I would love to join, I've never been in a book club but read all the time probably 2 books a week lol. I like the idea of it having something to do with the month...I'll look around and see what I can find.

I too would be interested in joining. I am constantly reading. I also look at what other Diser`s suggest. I have read many that were suggested and liked them.

 

[Tinks]

Angela's Ashes is a coming of age in Ireland book. Might be good for March.

 

[agotta]

There are so many great books I haven't read. I have always wanted to read Angelas Ashes.

And there are plent of used copies on Amazon for really cheap (or I suppose I could go to the library...)

 

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

okay i'm in, just let me know the book! i love to read and constantly have my nose in a book! even at the gym while on the treadmill! how exciting!

 

[JennyMominRI]

I would join

 

[agotta]

Bump!!

Any more suggestions for books?

 

[Pooh's Pixie]

I'm subscribing since I'd love to be in a real book club. Our neighborhood has one but it's really a "bookless" club because we hardly ever read, it's mostly just neighborhood chat and a chance to get together. In fact, we meet tonight!

Angela's Ashes is good and Maeve Binchy is another Irish writer with lots of great books.

One more suggestion -There was a thread recently about "The Kite Runner," which reminded me that one of my friends recommended it. I can't recall what it's about, but I was thinking of reading that next.

 

[agotta]

Someone at work today recommended the Sweet Potato Queens book of Love.

 

[MN Dis Fans]

This is a great idea1

 

[agotta]

Ok, lets vote

 

[babytrees]

I know this has already gone to vote...but I love the theme idea!!!

Kite Runner is a good book, so is The Secret Life of Bees.....

I would love to read another Maeve Binchy sometime!!

 

[ImarriedGrumpy]

I've always wanted to be in a book club! Maybe if I'm reading a book with ya'll my DH won't roll his eyes so much when I mention "conversations" I've had with folks on the DIS!

 

[txSleepingBeauty]

Someone at work today recommended the Sweet Potato Queens book of Love.

that is a great book, it's hilarious!

I'm in, if you'll have me, lord knows I have tons of recommendations too....

 

[MAKmom]

I want to join. Can we please only pick books that are out in soft back ? Hardback's are too expensive.
