LOVE, LOVE, LOVE...

Loving Frank, it's so scandalous. I can't wait for the next book club discussion. I am not finished with the book yet however I can't seem to put it down. I hope you all are having the same experience.

Thank you for the tip that we shouldn't google the book, however, now that I know that I can't wait to google the book when I'm done.

Happy Holidays to all and I hope to see everyone at some point this December.

ENJOY!!

Loving Frank Tip

Hey guys! Just a note that two people (who have loved the book) have told me "Don't Google the book!" or "Don't Wikipedia the book!" in the last two days, so I thought I'd pass along.

Loving Frank

Hi, ladies. We had a very nice meeting last week to discuss Never Let Me Go. Consensus - we actually liked it! So, if you didn't get around to reading it, I highly recommend it. There are several copies floating around the group available for borrowing.

Given the upcoming hectic holiday season, our next meeting will be held in mid-January to discuss Loving Frank, by Nancy Horan. It is historical fiction about Frank Llyod Wright's longtime affair with a woman named Mamah Cheney. It should be interesting to compare what we know of Frank Lloyd Wright versus how he is portrayed in the novel. So, pick it up on Amazon, put it on your holiday wish list, or go buy it at Park Road Books.

New Book: Never Let Me Go

After much discussion, the next book will be Never Let Me Go by Kazou Ishiguro. We also decided that October is too busy for everyone to try and meet, so our next meeting will be November 10th, location TBD. (Anyone have suggestions?)

Also, I started a new page on the sidebar to keep a list of potential books to read. Feel free to add at will. Hopefully this will take some of the pain out of selecting books!

Meeting Reminder!

Hi, ladies! The holiday weekend has really snuck up on me, so just a quick reminder about our meeting NEXT Wednesday, 9-8-10, 6:30 PM at Dolce Vita in NODA.

Also, in case you want MORE book gatherings, 9-13-10 at 6:30 PM, the Charlotte chapter of the WNBA is hosting a networking social at Upstream in Phillips Place. You don't have to be a member and there will be free books! It's a great group of smart, fun women so I hope some of you can make it!

If you like the WNBA, consider joining and attending their first ever Bibliofeast on 10-11-10 at Sante in Matthews. This month's author, Kim Wright, will be attending! We can hit her up for details on writing her book, how cool is that?

Love in Mid Air - Another Buying Option

I can get this book through work for $13.43 (+ tax) -- just let me know if you want me to order it for you!

New Book - Love in MidAir

We had a lively conversation about Sarah's Key last evening at Amelie's, but the general consensus was 'eh.' Per Liz's request to read something with some sex in it, we've chosen Love in MidAir as the next book. It's by a local Charlotte author, Kim Wright, and some of the story takes place in Ballantyne. It was recommended by Sally Brewster of Park Road Books as a great summer read. You can buy it here or at Park Road Books.

Also, we decided to try meeting the second Wednesday of each month. Next month, that will be September 8th and we will meet at Dolce Vita in Noda. (It's also half off wine night, coincidence?)
