Hi Ladies,
After discussing my progress with Sharon and Brandi, we decided to have book group this Friday and discuss the 1st half of "Lorna Doone." I'm a little more than halfway done (I didn't get much reading in while I was playing with grandkids) and both Sharon and Brandi thought they wouldn't be done by Friday. Let's meet, eat and discuss what we have read and encourage each other to finish. I'm at a pretty exciting part in the book and am really enjoying it! We thought it would be fun to watch a movie after our short discussion. Any suggestions?
Let me know if you are onboard and if you will be able to come. We will start at 6:00pm at my house and have a fun girls night out!

Get Reading!
Hi Everyone!
I hope you have started reading our book choice, "Lorna Doone." I'm to Chapter 12. I'll admit, the first couple of chapters were a little difficult, but as with almost every book I read (excepting for "Harry Potter" and "Twilight") it always takes a few chapters to get the feel for the author's writing and the storyline. I've been listening to some of the book and the narrator does a great job at the dialects and brogues of the characters - some of which I have had a difficult time understanding! Now that I'm farther along the story is great and I'm really enjoying this book! If you haven't started, get busy! You will enjoy this book and enjoy a great story!
Let's plan on having our book discussion and movie night on Friday, February 22nd at my house. The movie is 2 1/2 hours so we will need to start around 5:30-6:00pm. Put that date on your calendar and get reading!

Sorry for the Possible Spoiler
Sorry ladies, for the spoiler. I was in a hurry this morning and wanted to get something going with this next book and didn't know enough of the book to give you an idea of what it was about. It wasn't a spoiler to me, I will read it and maybe it will help me know what is going on. But I do hope it didn't spoil the book for Kris' sake and ruin a book discussion for those who will not read the book after reading the plot summary from Wikipedia.
Once again I am very sorry.
Sharon
