Are you reading with us?


Next book: Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver, due August 13th.

Our second book club meeting is quickly approaching, but there is still plenty of time for you to pick up the book and read through it. So I hope you do. It's a quick one. At least that's what I'm told. And it better be true because I am desperately trying to finish some of the books I'll be teaching this fall that I've never read including The Book Thief, Life of Pi, and Fahrenheit 451. This means I'm going to have to wait until the last minute to read Before I Fall.

We'll be selecting our third book at our next meeting. The decision is ultimately up to Melisa, so if you have a suggestion, feel free to post it here. You can also look at our list for ideas or suggest something totally different.

Due date for Before I Fall is August 13th. Shortly after the 13th we'll post our meeting notes, some photos, and some videos of our discussion.  We don't have the time or the skills for any high-quality production, but if you've got suggestions for our post-meeting blog posts, (videos, photos, meeting notes, ratings), please let us know.

Happy reading, bookworms!

    I just finished the book and am now having withdrawal. What am I supposed to do while I take a bath now? Seriously!

    I don't think Elena is reading, but I am pretty sure Kara is. Or she bought it at least. Hello? Kara! Are you reading?

    I think I speak for all of us when I say, Scott we're glad you're reading. We like the input from both you and Christina. It's kind of a big deal.

    thank you kayla!

    I'm not sure what I think of this book. I'm about 10 pages from finishing and have very mixed feelings.
