Authors By The Alphabet






Ok girls, here we go again!  We will be restarting this baby in January with some new rules.  Each participant will host a month at their blogs with the wrap up Q-n-A at the end of the month and they will pick the book for that month.  If one of us has read it, we can always just give a quick skim to refresh our memories this way there's no checking back and forth waiting to see who did or didn't or does or doesn't want to read it.   A book club is to expose ourselves to things we might not normally read and each of us will have a chance to hit our fave genres when we host :) We will go in order of sign-ups from Mr. Linky.  I will post the book choice and have it on my sidebar as well.  Questions are easy enough, a lot of books have ?'s all ready to go and you can find them online, if not, there are generic ?'s that you can use as well.

We will start with the letter B and have the ?'s on the last Monday of each month.  We can stop by the host's blog, copy and paste the ?'s answer them and then post in the comment section.

I'm looking forward to this, I'm glad we're doing it this way, it makes it much easier!  Sign up below, and whoever snags #1 and 2, start looking for that B and C author book!

  1. I'm in of course. I don't think the Linky is working Paula.

  2. Hey all, I'll sign up again, though I'm still a little hesitant because of all the difficulties in my life right now.

  5. Marce, that works. It
    ll just be easier with you making the choice so that there's no back and forth. I'll do up a post announcing the choice for January!

    Sounds like a good book :)

  6. My library has a copy of Stormchasers but it's out with another patron. Hopefully, they'll return it on time and I'll get it sometime in January. Looking forward to it!

  7. I've been reserving my book club books, it costs 75 cents, but it's worth it so I don't have to buy em and as soon as they come in I get a call.

  11. Somehow I missed this post by you. I commented on one of your other posts that I was going to participate this month, Paula. Sorry for joining late! I did just finish the book and post my review though.....

  13. Do you all mind if I want to join a little late? I found you through Julie's blog. I just started my own blog and this looks like it could be fun! I am going to read the Sandra Dallas book this month.

  15. I would like for us to read Saving Graces, Finding Solace and Strength from Friends and Strangers by Elizabeth Edwards. It's available on Kindle and paperback at Amazon. I look forward to discussing the "E" book with you all! And the "D" book too.

  16. This is June's choice now ladies.

    Three Wishes: A True Story of Good Friends, Crushing Heartbreak, and Astonishing Luck on Our Way to Love and Motherhood by Carey Goldberg for our June read.

    I will post on my blog to try and get more participation. When I did it as a Friday Find, there was good feedback of interest to read it, so we will see.

  17. I am seriously not happy with my choices, sigh :-(

    I will put up Q&A later tonight or tomorrow.
