April Book


I've chosen a book for April for all of you fast readers! I just finished the book for February! Sorry to have missed out the other night- damn kids are little germ factories- passing them all on to the rest of us!
This book is a collection of short stories. So for those of us who don't always get to finish the book - we can still be part of the discussion :)

The Newest Addition to our Triple B Family

 


Baby Zachary was born at 11:40am today and weighed 8lbs 13 oz and is 20.5 inches long. I know everyone is concerned about how Bob is doing, since he had to do the brunt of the work; rest assured-everyone is doing just fine--mom included.  
We can't wait to meet the lil' man.  

We Love You Lisa B!!!

Thinking Ahead

Hey,

I know it is a little too early to think about next year... but I wanted to share with you how another book  club goes about choosing their books; it might be something we would want to consider or it might not be.  This is the gist of what another club does:

I guess at the beginning of their book club year (I consider September to be our new year) or some time before it, each member brings to the table a few books they would choose for their month.  From there, everyone looks them over and they vote on what books they should read.  Then they set up a schedule of when they would read each book selection and who would be the hostess.  That way, they know of the books and can read ahead of the schedule if the desire strikes them.  I am not saying this is the best method, we can tweak it and just have the next 4 books picked--just in case a newly published book comes out later. 

Just an idea.  Let me know your thought,

Anna
