Thank you!

Wow! What a great birthday present! I love it. Thank you so much! I don't know anything about the first book which is kind of exciting.

Happy birthday!!

Have a wonderful birthday, Sarah! In honor of your birthday and the birth of this blog, I reserved our book at the library! Can't wait to start reading it and chatting with you both!

Happy Birthday, Sarah!

[Singing] Happy birthday to you.  Happy birthday to you.  Happy birthday, dear Sarah, happy birthday to you! [end singing.]

Kathy and I are giving you the gift of a book discussion blog.

The vision:
- we choose a book and read it.
- we choose a week as a deadline to have the book finished.
- at any time during that week we can post at will and discuss the book via this blog.
- wash, rinse, repeat.

Of course, I'd encourage posting at anytime.  But maybe no spoilers until the designated discussion week?  Most importantly, if you have suggestions as to how to make this better, fire away!

If you haven't already, check your e-mail and become an author of this blog!  I hope this turns out to be as much fun as I'm envisioning!

Testing 1..2...3

Hello! I think I figured it out. Managed to post a photo of myself bowling (no, I'm not a giant - that's a candle-pin ball). Will wait to hear from you and will check out Olive Kitteridge:)

A New Start

I started this blog for my local book group.  But alas, it was not used.  So, I'm now transforming it for my long-distance book group.

To my local peeps: if for some odd reason you've decided to check this out again, hi!  Sorry to kidnap the blog, but I'm hoping it's new life will be more active.
