Seeing the Book Club Play tonight.
Book #5 for #14Books14Weeks2021 is complete. Still behind and not likely to finish on time but, I will finish! This book was donated to one of my little free libraries and when5 I saw the cover I knew I had to read it! One book club, 5 women. 5 different paths in life, 5 very different, life changing situations! And isn't that life? Life=changes. And, how we handle those changes. These 5 women handle these changes(cont in comments)
1. Yes! Love them.
2. Yes - we‘ve been together for about 15 years. We meet in person but not as frequently as we did prior to Covid.

Congrats @callielafleur on your awesome Litsy milestone 🎉❤️😀 Thanks so much for #payingitforward
Thought this carton was funny.... #LitsyIsTheBestINT
My new book clubbers! I‘m waiting for email responses from the tagged folks! Please reply ASAP, I want to send the final email around 5 EST tonight!
(Happy dance!)
I guess I need to find a new book club since it seems all the ones I was following have gone defunked. Any suggestions?
The story is about five different women who come together out of a love for reading and for one another. Each one faces a crisis for which they are unprepared. Each woman's story is interesting and the interactions between the characters is delightful. The Book Club it is not as good as her other books, readable, but not the authors best.
Had our annual holiday get together with book club this evening... I love these ladies so much!!

#JingleShelves Here is my list of 2017 IRL #bookclubread(s) Overall, a great year of book selections and discussions💕📚💕🙌🏻Excited for #2018....we already have January through March selected 🤓 what was your favorite bookclub read in 2017?!?!??
Sitting by myself at a bar waiting for bookclub members to arrive. Everyone else though start time was 7:30pm but I arrived early for a 7pm start 😔
Packages for @CoffeeCatsBooks and @Carleneishere are posting today! #coffeebeanbookclub #restingbookface
When books get to rate humans! 😂
I like books about books & women's friendships & I generally like Mary Alice Monroe, so conditions were ripe for me to like this book. But no. The book club frame was not well used -- often I'd forget they were in a book club. Some of the women are deliberately obtuse, others are just not nice, and others are boring. Only 3 of the 5 women are essential to the story. At least I didn't loathe the book like the Frank & Hilderbrand ones.
Perhaps I should give up my favorite beach read/chick lit authors for awhile. Mary Alice Monroe has been a go-to author for me in this genre, but I find I'm irritated by many characters in this book and I'm only a few chapters in. Who gets mad at a friend for grieving the loss of their husband when it's only been 6 months? Who names their daughter Bronte and their son Finney? Someone with literary pretensions, that's who.
Happy 1st August!!! New month! New books! This month we are reading #Romance. Here are our 5 #RomanceReads. Do join our #SummerReads Bookswap book club. It's all about LOVE , book love that is 💕💕💕💕
Hey everyone!!! We've selected August theme, it's #Romance! Join us for #SummerReads #MyBookSwapClub book club. Tomorrow we will be revealing some of the best titles with romantic theme! Feel free to make recommendation 💕💕💕
I started reading Game of Thrones and I later discovered that here on Litsy there was a Game of Thrones read along that I am now joining in! I decided to try to make a list of book clubs and read alongs that are happening in August!
I've tagged the organizers so if you are interested you can head to their pages and check out the details!
Please let me know of other ones or corrections and I can make an updated list! And feel free to repost!
Here's a few pics from my book club meeting last night, minus a few absentee ladies. We went to a local winery to celebrate summer and discussed the book too...sorta. I'm trying to get them to join Litsy, but no one has caved yet.
I am taking a break. Three hours to twenty four hours of reading. I am going to grab a bite to eat and get ready for the Litsy Book Club at 5 pm. Who is joining me to discuss this month's book?
I say: "Let's read more this summer"
You ask: How?
Join our 'MyBookSwapClub' #SummerClub
Rules (these are fun ones)
1. We choose a specific theme for each month ~ July, August and September
2. We agree specific date/time in each month to discuss the book(s) we've read (I'll post a separate discussion thread).
3. We all have fun, and spread the joy.
Express your interest in the comment, and I'll start shortlisting the themes/authors/titles.
The #2030SomethingBookClub had a superb discussion of "The Wonder" today ???????! Some of our fellow Litsyans present are: @BookBabe , @SewItGoes , @BookPixie , @Much_Ado_About_Reading . And we missed @MysteryAuthor , @Apinlibraryland , and @BrooklynBookGirl ! Always next time...which will be the Sunday of #BookCon ???????!!! Followed by "American Pastoral" later in June. #bookclub #NYC
These two beauties, along with my handmade #bookmark was sent to lovely #litsy members #MyBookSwap I feel an urge to organise one soon! Shall I?
Our book club sign (which is a true story) and the perfect spot we found to put it in 😁👍🏼
It's so sad that no one I know on my fb responded to this. 😔😔😔 the eight members are people I added that read sometimes
When your bookish friends know that you love bracelets as much as books ❤️. I wear bracelets everyday. #LitsyGoesPostal
Alright fellow littens... A few of my coworkers have approached me about starting a book club and I am looking for book club books. I know what I have read and loved but I am wondering if there are some goodies out there that I haven't read! And... Go!! 😀
