Good day, fellow readers! Welcome to the We Really Read The Book Book Club blog! I hope that all of you had a wonderful Thanksgiving. There is so much that I have to be thankful for, and one of the most enjoyable is our friendship, the many books that we read together, and the wonderful meals and thought provoking discussions we have shared. I like each of you so much, and feel very honored to be your librarian.
In an attempt to facilitate planning our gatherings and also to allow us to share our thoughts on the books that we read, I have started this blog. I would be grateful for any of you to add to the posts, links, comments and other features of this blog. I would be very happy to help you to use the features of blogspot.
I have just started reading the next selection that Chris chose for our book club, The Story of Edgar Sawtelle, by David Wroblewski. If you have not picked up your copy, stop by the library and check it out. It has great reviews. Here is a quote from Stephen King, "Wonderful, mysterious, long and satisfying: readers who pick up this novel are going to enter a richer world. I envy them the trip. I don't re-read many books, because life is too short. I will be re-reading this one."
It is a long book, so it would likely be better to give ourselves till sometime in January to finish it.
I would like to invite all of you to my home for our December Christmas gathering on Thursday, Dec. 18 if most of you can attend. I already spoke to Gerry and Melanie, and that day works for both of them. We can follow our tradition of each purchasing a children's book and a book to exchange with each other. I will look forward to hearing back from you. I will watch for your responses in the comments. I love comments!!
