bahumbug

I just wanted to make my presence known. =P That's all.
Good job setting this up Tiffy!

I'll share wise words from Kalam: "Read like your life's depending on it!"

Thank you!

Thanks for organizing this book club, guys. It is really great to be able to discuss books with other book lovers out there. I know that for me, at least, it will be a great opportunity to read books that I might not otherwise read.

FYI: As a teacher, I get books at a discount from Scholastic. If you would like, I could order them for you, if there are any books that you would like. You can check out their website at
http://www.scholastic.ca/clubs/. They are primarily children's books, so I don't know whether they will be of interest to you. But, who knows? It might be a way to 'rediscover' some of those children's classics that you haven't read in a long time. I know that I've seen the complete set of The Chronicles of Narnia for approximately $30 (and I know that there are a few of you who loved it!), and for Mary - The Little House on the Prairie Box Set (9 books for $40). Anyways, let me know if you see anything of interest.

See you guys at the next meeting!

welcome, welcome!

hey guys! just wanted to welcome you all to the delta book club/small group! :) we had our first meeting this tuesday, and despite only having three pages of text to discuss (the first letter/chapter of the screwtape letters), i thought that we were off to a great start!

so... the purpose of this blog was really to just give us a chance to "talk" throughout the week, especially for those who are unable to make it to the meetings. feel free to post your thoughts on a specific passage or phrase that you read, to recommend or review any other books that you've been reading, to suggest future book club titles, or to even just update us on your interesting life! :)

the next meeting will be on monday, october 24th at 7pm in the second cup right by the UT campus. try to read as much of screwtape as you can by that date - though, with the voracious readers in this bunch, i'm sure you'll all be done by the end of this week! :p

looking forward to seeing you all again! happy reading!
