Change of plans...

Hey all! There's been a slight change of plans. We're going to let Courtney's house get off easy and change the venue to my (Kirsten's) place. Same time and date, but over here instead. So here's the gist:

13350 sw Village Glenn Dr.
Tigard, 97223
(Green house on the corner)

7pm- dessert and coffee will be provided.

Let us know if you'll be here- can't wait to see everyone!

Happy Reading!

Change of Plans!

*** EDIT*** Hey all! Quick announcement. For those of you that go to Colossae (quite a few of us!), we are now having a Good Friday service, so we're switching book club day (or else it'd be a sparse meeting!). New time is: Friday, Apr 29th, 7pm. Thanks so much to Courtney who made the switch so we could do both. Happy Reading!

Nine Stories

Hey all! How's everyone doing with our friend J.D.? Courtney's got a date in mind for the next meeting! Keep your calendars open on... Friday, April 22nd 7pmish. I'll post a reminder with her address later, as we get closer. Let us know if you can make it so we have a head count idea!

MARCH!

Hey all!

As promised, though a few days late, is the March and April pick. Courtesy of Courtney, we will be reading....

9 Stories by J.D. Salinger!

I'm particularly excited because it's a new genre for us (short stories) and because Salinger is... well... unique.

So the only bad news is that, so far as I can tell, it isn't at the library- at all. I haven't figured out yet if the same short stories are in a different collection (which might be the case), so it might be available in a different grouping. I found used copies for as cheap as $3 at Amazon, so one way or the other, it shouldn't be a problem getting it.

Please remember- we're working towards getting back to the 6 week marker so we meet a loittle less sporadically. We'll let you know about dates and stuff as soon as it's set.

Happy Reading!

Great House

We have a date! So here's the deal:

Sunday, February 27th
3 pm
Vivace Coffee House and Creperie (yum!)
1400 NW 23rd Ave, Portland 97210.

Be ready to discuss Great House and have some delicious treats! Let us know if you can make it- maybe we can set up some carpools!

Happy Reading!

JANUARY! February?

Hey ladies!
I'm a little bit late getting this post up, so I'm sorry about that.

The pick from Amanda is Great House by Nicole Krauss.

The only problem that I'm seeing is that there are a TON (79) of holds at the library, so you'll probably want to buy it. (Incidentally, I've had it on request from the library for a while and still no luck.)

We can talk about this, but considering time to buy or share the book, maybe we'll move back to February for the actual meeting. Let us know ASAP what works for you so Amanda can think it through as she picks the date.

Happy Reading!

Sunday Reminder

Hey all!

We're just sending out a quick reminder that book club is THIS SUNDAY, the 5th, at 7pm at Karyn Vorhees's house. (Her address is on the last post.)

If, like many others, you haven't finished the book, PLEASE COME ANYWAYS! You'll be in good company, I promise. We'll have treats and chat and just enjoy each other's company, so don't miss out.

See you then!

Happy Reading!
