We pick our books a year in advance and for the most part, we have picked pretty well but once in awhile there is a zinger that makes it on the list and we are always left scratching our heads as to how it happened. <br /><br />My new book club starts in March and I am heading it and I am a bit nervous about it.Tihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00926060806244061354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7008131509611971593.post-62898018048948575962009-11-28T11:17:31.591-05:002009-11-28T11:17:31.591-05:00I think I didn't explain properly.

Usually Mari or sometimes another member reads the book first and then makes a recommendation to the club to make sure there's enough to take about. I think the only book that's been a re-read for any of us was Pride & Prejudice and even then some of the ladies had not read the book before.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05554217416500328610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7008131509611971593.post-19945809805322705232009-11-27T13:32:24.623-05:002009-11-27T13:32:24.623-05:00Sounds like a great group Lisa!
