A Book Club! so my brain doesnt go to mush!



[there is a new recipe for Country Captain Chicken down below]

I wrote last week about the possibility of reading a book or two together over the summer holiday. I havent done much reading (other than Pat the Bunny and cookbooks) lately, and I miss it.

I received nineteen recommendations to read Kathryn Stocketts, The Help.
I dont know anything about this book other than the information listed on Amazon, and that it appears to be a bit controversial to some reviewers.

But my friend Danielle sells an awful lot of copies, and Shirley liked it, so thats good enough for me.

The kids are off school this upcoming Monday, and Ill need a good book to read during quiet reading time. Penny (I dont have a link for Penny!) pointed out that its still only available in hardback (although there is a kindle version), but my local library has 12 copies, so hopefully yours has a copy to borrow.

Hows July 15 or thereabouts work? Ive got a deadline July 1, which is why Id prefer a bit of wiggle-room. The 15th is a Thursday.

Ill start a discussion on this site in the morning, and then host a live twitter party that evening---5 to 6 pm pacific time.

If you dont have twitter, no worries. You can still follow along, even without an account.

As for facebook, Im still a holdout. I dont have an account---Im super nervous to have "just one more thing" to check during the day, and I figure if anyone really wants to get a hold of me they can track me down. That said, a reader did start a fan page where you can evidently chat back and forth. I think. Im not actually sure how it all works!

Happy reading! See you on July 15th!
