Read, Post, Repeat... discussion

I LOVE to read. I mean seriously, if I had a nickel for every hour I’ve spent reading over the years I’d… well, let’s just say I’d have a whole lot of nickels! Oddly enough, though, I’ve had very limited experience with Book Clubs. Being a novice at this, I’ve had to refer to my good friend ‘Google’ for what sort of things we should talk about. As you might suspect, the list of topics is endless, so as we wander along this path together I’ve decided to just pick questions at random. So, here goes…. How did you experience the book? Were you drawn into the story immediately – or did it take a while? As for me, I was drawn in right from the start. Notice I didn’t say I liked it right from the start (even though I did). Apparently you’re not supposed to get into what you like or don’t like in Book Club discussions. Go figure…. Anyway, as I was saying, I was drawn in from the first page. For one thing, I like – oops, sorry! – books that start with some sort of dialogue. Just a sentence or two is all I need. I know it’s weird, but there you go. “Um, hello. Is anyone out there?” The girl in the dressing room next to mine has a voice like a chipmunk. “Hello?” See? It’s catchy, isn’t it? Also, vanity sizing, jeans shopping and discovering that you’re part of the larger customer section of the population. I felt Heather’s pain, you know? How about you? Were you in right away, or did it take you a while?
