We had our first book club meeting today and like so many committees, we decided on nothing definitively. Obviously, we decided to start a blog for better communication. We also broke down the rest of the year into categories so we could experience varied genres. Here is the general rundown:
February: Romance
March: Current issues/political/non-fiction
April: Spiritual
May: Motherhood
June: Western/Adventure
July: Historical/Biography/Patriotic
August: Beach Reads
September: Classics we haven't gotten around to yet
October: Suspense
November: Political
December: something Christmassy
Some of us wanted to meet more than monthly, so we're kind of hoping for a bi-monthly meeting. Maybe the first book can meet the genre and the second can be chosen by rotating members of the group. What do you think? Should we set up a rotation schedule?
We thought we'd meet in the morning once and the evening another time so more people can participate. What times and days are best for you? We can get a general idea and then do a poll.
We also thought we'd have a list of responsibilites that we rotate through, like hosting and bringing snacks.
I've added everyone I know of wanting to participate as an author on the blog, but since somebody had to start it, I got things going. I'll change out the templates regularly at Jennie's request. If you have any kind of suggestions, just let me know.
