Welcome to the Club!

Welcome to the Star Heights Book Club! If you love books, you are welcome to join! Invite your neighbors, friends, family... anyone who wants to come is invited. And if you don't love books but you still want to come, you're invited (we'll just make you bring the refreshments... just kidding)!

So, this is how it's going to work... I think... I'm going to start it off and host the club at my house on June 1 at 7 p.m. I'm guessing it will usually last 1 1/2 - 2 hours and refreshments will be served by the one hosting the club. Since the book I've chosen for this month is The Secret Life of Bees and since some of us read it many months ago (when I first said I'd start the book club) and since some people won't have time to read it before the club, we've decided to watch the movie!!! However, I have 3 extra books so if you'd like to give it a go, let me know!

We will come up with a list of names of those who would like to join and have you recommend a book and choose a month to host (the club will be held the 1st Tuesday of every month). Hopefully we can get 6 months to a year planned so you can all be prepared. We're open for suggestions and ideas on how to run the club. We'll also come up with some guidelines so that everyone is comfortable with the reading list and most of all, we'll have fun!

I don't want to give out personal information over the internet, so feel free to e-mail me at hey nonnie at yahoo dot com. And finally, a disclaimer: I did not copy Cabezon Book Club on purpose. It turns out they have the same blog background as me (books, go figure!) and our club names are ironically similar in that they're named after the wards most of us belong to, though it's not a ward sponsored activity. Oh, and I just took a look and it turns out they're doing a movie during the month of June too. Ah well, great minds think alike! Just don't tell them about us until I find another background that I like better.

Happy Reading! ~Dione
