Upcoming Plans!

Yikes! With school ending madness, I've fallen behind on the job! Here's what we've got coming up.

MOVIE NIGHT: So, it was supposed to be tonight. Yeah, sorry about that. It being the first week of summer, and the day after a holiday, I figured it would have been a bad night anyway. SO, we'll look at doing Tuesday, July 6th for our movie night. We talked over a few options at our last meeting, and you can vote over on the sidebar. The options are these:

The Young Victoria (PG): This is the true story of the time Victoria took over the crown. Since we just read a book sort of about that, we thought it would be fitting. I've since watched it and it is DARLING and nice and clean, and just wonderful. I'd be happy to see it again.

Sherlock Holmes (PG-13): Just cause it's Britishy and mysteryish and we were in the mood. I figure you know enough about it.

Cold Comfort Farm (TV): This really has nothing to do with our last book, but I think it's hilarious. It's about a fashionable girl who has nowhere to go upon her parents death but to relatives. She ends up at a dilapidated old farm with every kind of backward and crazy person. She fixes them all up. Very funny. But we could also read this book eventually, so we could wait for that on this one, if you want.

Please vote.

Also, Stacey asked if we wanted to change her book. After some wishy washy discussion on the subject, we decided that it was up to Stacey. Some people have it and some have read it, but no one minds changing. However, Kristina wants to have The Hunger Games as her book choice next APRIL if possible, and we thought that might be a good idea since we're doing YA books this summer, but the new one is coming out soon, and we could really do both if we wanted to. Still, Stacey, it is up to you. Sorry we are of no help. I tried to make them come to a decision, it couldn't be done. :)

Let us know of your decision, and if we need a new poll.

  1. Sorry I've been unable to attend book group for several months in a row so I'll go ahead and weigh in here. I'm glad Kristine has chosen 'The Hunger Games' (just wanted it to be on the list - a lot to talk about with that one;) I don't think I'l do the second book (Catching Fire), I'll just go ahead and stick with 'Remembering Isaac' just to avoid a hassle. I'm ok with reviewing a book I'm not crazy about - maybe someone else will love it. This will teach me to read the book before I suggest it next time:) Hopefully this message will get to everyone - I'm going to miss our July movie night again since I will once again be out of town:( but will catch up with the group after that hopefully!
