Reading in '09

Hey everybody!

It's a new year for reading and I can't wait! I'm going to try to beat my page total for last year although we'll see...Ron groans now every time I start a new book. I still have a few books to catch up on from last year and I can't wait to see what you all choose for this year. I was wondering if we could maybe set a deadline for ourselves for posting the book for the coming month - like maybe on a certain day of the month - so we all have time to get it?! (I hope you don't mind Tricia, I took the liberty of assigning the first few months of the year.) Also, we need to figure out how we want to discuss the books we read. I really want to know what you all thought. Post your ideas!

P.S. I'm almost done with Marley & Me and wanted to apologize for the language! I guess that's the risk you take choosing a book you've never read before. Too bad it's so darn funny!

January: Marley and Me by John Grogan

I've been a slacker the last couple of months with this book club so I'm going to do better this year. The Left Behind series has been holding me hostage! I'm also going to take the initiative and pick a book for January - hope you don't mind! If any of you have already read this leave a comment. I've got several other choices!
