October = Creepy Reads

Thanks for a great first meeting today. The memorable reads of the summer were interesting to hear about. Creepy is the theme for our next meeting on October 17th! Please comment below about your favorite or least favorite book in this category. Remember that we will talk about the Maze Runner in November.

Thanks!

Welcome back LOL!

Hi All,
Welcome! Hope you all had a nice summer filled with reading. Our first LOL meeting is scheduled for Friday, September 26! Let's plan on talking about one memorable read from this summer. Please come prepared to discuss. To get the conversation started, go ahead and post a little about your memorable pick in the comments below.
Thanks and see you soon!

Thanks for the great discussion about The Perks of Being Wallflower yesterday! For our last meeting of the year, we will pick books to read as a group for next year. Please comment about a book you would like to suggest as a "group read." Feel free to include a link to Amazon or review so others can take a look. Many of you mentioned Ready Player One as an option.  I am excited to see what else you suggest!

Endings...love it or hate it.

Hi All!

This is unforgivably late! So we are meeting this Thursday to discuss the endings of books! Happy, sad, surprising, well developed, open, closed, and fuzzy are just a few of the ways I can think of describing the endings to some of my favorite books! What do you think?

Please come ready to discuss and post something below!

See you Thursday!
Molly and Mr. O

Remember when they took that great book and butchered it into a movie?

Hi All!
For January let's talk about movie adaptations of books! Pick a good book that was turned into a great movie, a good book that was turned into a horrible movie, a bad book that worked well on the screen, or an execrable book that was an even worse movie! So many possibilities!!!
Please comment below and come with talking points to the January meeting!
Best,
Molly and Mr. O

For something lighter in December....

You drudged through the assigned book; congratulations! What about something lighter? Share a book with a happy ending with the group! I challenge you to give more than a plot summary...what about the book made you want to share? Was it the plot, the author's writing style, or something else that made the book stand out to you? Try to be as specific as possible! See you all in the second week of December.
