Next book to read is...

Natalie's pick is: Half Blood Blues
Author: Esi Edugyan

Tuesday December 4th book club is at Carol's house
1028 Queen St. East - apparently you can park on Queen for free.

Carol's note says: "I will leave the front door open as I have no doorbell. Come and if you don't, you are lame."  Honest... that's what she wrote! She also wrote "Don't forget your gift!"

Don't forget to mark your calendar as well for a  Tuesday in December - Carol is hosting and her blog post says she's fine with the switch of dates so Tuesday December 4th is at her house!

October book choice

Hi all,

Thanks again Jacqueline for such a great dinner!  So, seeing that my first two choices for this months book were so fabulous that you all have already read them, I had to go back to the drawing board.

I think this choice came to me in a vision...just like Anastasia Steele (if you don't know who she is, your either denying it or your depriving yourself....) I woke up late one night after a dream where i was hearing: Nelly Oleson....Nelly Oleson...over and over again, and only to see a tall woman's figure at the end of my bed that vaguely resembled Carolyn B!

So, this months choice will be Confessions of a Prairie Bitch: How I survived Nellie Oleson's and Learned to Love Being Hated by Alison Arngrim. It is supposed to be quite funny.

Happy reading!

Dawn
