Would Anyone Be Interested in a Booklovers Lane, or maybe Reader's Circle?

Sherry,

I have always wanted to try that. Maybe we can read your novel if you get it done.

Right now I am obsessed with The Blind Assassin. I think it's the most brilliant book I've ever read.

Does Playboy count???? I like the articles. :D

I love to read too but the last book I read on "paper" was probably in high school.

I am a huge fan of audible books. Just like reading the book without actually having to do any reading!!! Great for while driving or working. I seem to absorb more by hearing them also. :)

Me too,

I am an Audible fan. I "read" on my bike rides.

I haven't gotten into the audible books. For me, it's the whole experience of holding the book and turning the pages and actually reading.

I'm well aware that I'm weird...LOL

hmm..I am very picky about my books. I hate some books but love others. "The Outsiders," "Holes," and "Code Orange" are my favorites. "The Last of the Mohicans" bored me after about 1 paragraph. :p

I often listen to audio books when I am driving on long trips ... it's 3 hours exactly to my parents' house and that's just right for most abridged audio books :D

I started a book club here in my town about 5 years ago and we're still going lol! I'll join but I have a stack to get through right now that I can't find the time to get to! When I was growing up my mom had to have my dad take her to the "big city" library because she read the entire Sci-Fi section of our town library!

I just got a book about rescuing a little red cardinal called, Loving Ruby, by Lois Chazen. It's a true story and would make a great gift. It's a great book for bird lovers and children of any age.I think the idea for a book lane is a great one! We could all sit around in a big nest and chatter away:)

Would it be okay if I posted a thread on the main section with a poll for us to decide what book to read?

Or can I do that in the Social Section?

I'm in!! Glad you "bumped" it Ginger!! I might never have found it otherwise.
I absolutely LOVE to read but getting to the book store gets expensive after awhile! :lol:

If I wasn't getting a laptop for Christmas I would have asked for a Kindle... I sooooooo want one of those!!

Ginger its perfectly okay to start a poll on the main board. It will be a good way to keep people going back to the group too :) I like how you have started it back there, great job :)
