Book Club Birthday

Last night was book club at my friend Stacey's new home. It was also the birthday of the book club, so we had a pot luck dinner and a book exchange along with our book discussion. I lucked out and managed to snag A Thousand Splendid Suns in the book exchange - something I have wanted to read for a long time.

We discussed The Goose Girl which I have already reviewed on the blog. If you have not read it, do. It is a lovely fairy tale and so very well written. I tried to take some photos last night since I have been feeling guilty about my lazy blogging, but none of them came out well (darn this winter and indoor lighting!). I love book club. We have a wonderful group of women who really enjoy books and reading and spending time together.

  1. lucky indeed on grabbing "a thousand splendid suns." i'm jealous of your book club; ours fizzled out this past summer as too many members had moved and there were only 3-4 of us regulars. we do have a strong card club exchange going right now and i'm liking that more than i though i would. it's fun to be creative!

  3. I haven't read Goose Girl, but I am really enjoying Book of a Thousand Days by that author.
    I just love book club. Our ward has a classics books club & a best sellers one. I jump back & forth between the two when I have time. It's so fun!
