Lush Library discussion

This month we'll do the same as last month and have one group member per book.
I've put myself down for since I suggested it and I'm a geek who bought a bookclub book for this place ;)

Put me down for one if you like? whichever one no-one else volunteers for.

Thanks Jo:)

The other books are:

I am planning to read so I'll volunteer if nobody else wants to?

I'll do Florence and Giles, if you like. Only if no-one else wants to, though, because I've had my turn :)

What order is everyone reading in? My The Raw Shark Texts arrived this morning so can't decide whether to start that or The Shadow of the Wind or to read Origins while I'm waiting to see what everyone else is doing... Help! lol

How far through are you Amina? I might start it too...

Amina are you happy to lead on Half of a yellow sun please?

Ok I think I'll follow you then :)

Slow down Amina I need to catch up hehe! Actually it's a really easy read isn't it? I'm enjoying it so far.

Thank you, there's no rush I'm sure it will take people a while to get round to it

This is probably going to sound rather egocentric but... I offered to do the discussion for The Raw Shark Texts and Sam Lockie has been put as discussion leader, just checking it's not supposed to be me? Cos I didn't see her volunteer. Sorry if I sound bad for this... :S

I'll change it. When you put a name in for discussion leader it only shows first names so that's probably what went wrong:)

No worries I didn't know whether to say anything or not, then I thought well we'll all be waiting if it's supposed to be me lol x

Oh sorry, yes I just put 'Sam' in forgetting there was 2 of you, durr!

HaHa no worries Jo I just didn't want to seem self important if it wasn't supposed to be me, but I knew the other Sam didn't offer and she didn't have any of the monthly books to read. Didn't want to get to the end of the month without the threads lol. x

You didn't sound self important at all, thank you for pointing it out x

I'm free to volunteer again, of course, but only if no-one else wants a turn. I don't want to be a hog!

I've read both Under the Dome and To Kill A Mockingbird before, but I'm really looking forward to reading them again :)

Woop woop! I am sooo excited! *Jumps on Amazon* :)

How many volunteers do you need? x

One for each book. Ness can do The Waiting Room. It would be good to get a couple of new discussion leaders.

I'm happy to do The Waiting Room, got my copy on it's way from Amazon :)

Becky - could you do Under the Dome? because you read it recently and loved it.

Ok lovely, It would be nice for more people to get involved. Send me a message if you need anyone else. I'll definitely be reading...
- Have ordered mine woohoo :)




I will do If I have time.

Ahh but the question is which two? ;)

Luckily my son has just finished To Kill A Mockingbird today, he's studying it for his GCSE ... so I have a copy in the house :) I'll definitely be reading this but starting with The Waiting Room first. I'd love to have chance to read Under the Dome too as I've never read a Stephen King! Not sure if I'll have time to read three though. I think we've got some great titles next month, quite excited :) I hope a lot of us can join in.

Yay for "Cherries being popped" hehe Stephen King is amazing I am reading and I'm loving it :) So good to relax and just allow things to unfold :)

So Ness is doing The Waiting Room, Becky is doing Under the Dome and Sarah and Sam have volunteered to do either of the other two - is that right? do you want to pick one each to do and add yourselves as discussion leaders?

I am reading at the moment it's about half the size of 500 to the 1000 ;) or check out my Stephen King challenge thread Amina :) If you click on the links they usually say how many pages they are. x

Don't blame you hun, if you don't have much time in February it's just not an option, maybe some other time :) x

Under the dome is 875 pages! Need to finish this months book. Also have 'The Help' waiting on my bookshelf and bought 'Room'because I've wanted to read it for a while now. Might be a bit much at once!!

I can do To Kill A Mockingbird, if you like? I probably won't have time to read The Help as well as this and Under the Dome.

I've managed to add myself, after a bit of confusion. There must be two of us :)

I can do the Help is no-one else is keen as I read it recently and liked it?

It's up to you Jo... I was just trying to give someone else a chance :)

mine have a tendency to veer off on a tangent so I will wait and see if someone else volunteers first!

Snap! You saw my hehe x

Well I think you're both fabulous x

One of you can have To Kill A Mockingbird if you like. I'm just trying to help out, but I honestly don't mind if someone else wants a go :)

Not at all hun, I love your threads :) x

We're all being so polite we still haven't decided who's doing which book! :D

HaHaHa I've not been well this week so I'd rather not do one this month if that's ok? If no-one else wants to then I will but yeah... lol

Thank you lovely, I already do :) It just put me back by about 5 days on my reading :s I have The Help too, I managed to find a copy of To Kill A Mockingbird at the library and they called me on Friday to tell me The Waiting Room had come in. So just need to finish F&G and read Animal Farm before I can start, 2 more days don't know if I'll do it in time hehe x
