New Year- New Resolutions

So, fresh new year- should we restart the bookclub?? I think it was my turn?

I choose Hiding Place by Corrie Ten Boom (unless everyone has read it already, then I'll pick something else)

Due Jan30th!

i'd love to read that book. nice and dark to start of the new year!

i'm finishing Pope Joan right now. Have you read that, Emily? It's very interesting. I'm in another book club and the next book we're reading is The History of Love. I can read The Hiding Place quickly though. It's not very long.

When should our deadline be???

Sounds great! I'm reading East of Eden right now for the book club that I am in.

Do you think it is dark? I mean, it IS but I pull it out and quote it for ever sacrament talk or lesson I've ever had to give, I think

I need some new suggestions for books so I love to hear what you are all reading!

Well, I am reading Jane Austen's Persuasion for the book club here. It is the "classic" choice for this year. I'll have to post the books we picked for the whole year so maybe some could coincide.

I may have read the Hiding Place but it was so long ago I can't remember it, so I am up for it too.

I better get off my bum and stop watching TV at night and get on my bum and start reading!

I've read it before, but it's a great book. If people want to read something similar, but different Victor Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning is a great one too.

Okay, so we are reading a Hiding Place, correct? I need to go get in from the liberry (as Jake calls it).

let's read the Hiding Place, then Man's Search for Meaning. I think I've read both of them, but it was a long time ago.

Does everyone agree?

Kathy said...

I'm down. I'm pretty sure that I own Man's Search for meaning. That one is not long at all.

Do we still want to do it on Jan. 30th?

Emily said...

They are both pretty short, as I recall. How about Hiding Place by Jan 30, Man's Search For Meaning by Feb 30?

Kathy said...

I'm good with that!
Thanks Emily!
