Hi Gang...
It's been a while since we've had much to
talk about! With the terrorist attacks of September 11, most of our
"reading for enjoyment" seemed to go down the tubes.
Especially, when you consider the types of books we seem to enjoy the
most--biological thrillers, end of the world scenario's, and timely
non-fiction.
We took some time out in September and
November- trying to read Harry Potter in October-- to try to get back
some of our love of reading and turn off CNN and MSNBC. With the
holidays coming, I imagine that things won't really pick up until
January or so.
We've been having trouble ...for a
change...with the yahoo-egroup chat rooms and soon...I will make a
change to a bravenet chat room for the group if I see we have any
internet participants. I am starting to use a room there for my other
group. Outlandish Central and will see how it works. Although we are
linked to chat at Egroup, normally we seem to meet in an AOL private
room because some of the chatters are having problems. Remember...If you
are looking for the chat... you can find me on AIM at "bookoworm".
I know that sounds confused... so If you want to participate in our
chats- email me at bookoworm@aol.com
and I'll give you up to date information! It's very important that we
get more participation in our chats if we hope to continue
them...because I am in school and have some other issues going on. It's
difficult to keep this commitment if no one else feels the same
way.
We have an active message board at EZBoard: Message
Board
If you can't make it to chat... feel free to post there about the
books we are discussing!
Just to let you know...our Upcoming Discussions
will focus on...
More Thrillers... Atlantis Found, A Walk in the Darkness, and Genesis Code
Please try to make it to our December 17th
meeting when we will make decisions about our 2002 selections.
SO...Join us on our boards and participate, join
us in our chats and participate! We have a GREAT group of folks who LOVE to
discuss books of many different Genres!
Marsha, Bookoworm
