June Book Club

I am hosting in June and I want to do the book Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte.  I know some of you have probably read it already, but if your like me, then it's been a while.  I read it in college - freshman year.  Also, for those of you reading on a kindle, or kindle app, it's free!!  I can't find my e-mail to set all this up on the book blog.  But I just thought I would let you all know so you can be prepared. 


I am going to tentatively set the date for June 23 at 7:00 p.m.  Let me know if that is a conflict for any of you.

May Book Club

I've decided to go with the book 'The Help' by Kathryn Stockett. I absolutely LOVE this book and am hoping that not too many of you have already read it, and if so, it's worth reading twice:) It's a story about racial integration in the segregated South and it has such great characters that captivate you and gives you such a vivid picture of how things were back then.


Let's plan for Thursday, May 19th @ 7:00 p.m. and if that's a huge conflict for many of you, I'm super flexible and can switch it up if we need to.

April Book Club

I have decided to host the book "The Glass Castle" by Jeannette Walls for book club this month.


This is one of my all-time favorite books! It is the memoir of a women who had a completely crazy upbringing, but still managed to succeed in life despite the odds.

Book Club will be held at 7:00 on Thursday the 21st.

A change for March Book Club

A little change of plans for Book Club.  I've decided to choose the book...

"Faith Behind the Fences" by Kelly Dispirito Taylor

This is my sister-in-law's first book!!  It's a fabulous story about Hanny and her life in a Japanese concentration camp.  

There will be a lot to discuss about the book.  I'm going to get my sister-in-law on the phone so we can ask her some questions and she can give us some insights about what we read.

There is going to be a special about Hanny in between Conference sessions in April.  I think it would be great if you could read the story before seeing the special. 

We will still discuss "Saving Cee Cee Honeycutt."  Sorry I'm doing 2 books!  But I want everyone to read Hanny's story before seeing her on tv!

Email me if you want to borrow a copy of the book.  I bought a bunch so we can pass them around.  Or purchase it at Seagull for $12.00.

March Book Club

I'll be hosting book club next month and am choosing the book, "Saving CeeCee Honeycutt" by Beth Hoffman.  Please reserve your book at the library asap.  It looks like there are plenty of books, but a few holds.


I have not read the book, but have heard great reviews from a few people.  I'm excited to read it!!

I'm planning on book club for Wednesday, March 30th @7:30pm. 

Thanks!!!  -Michelle Taylor
