Skirt Bookclub
I'm relatively new to this, so bear with me. As you now know, I'm the new book club at skirt! I'm single at the present time, but have TONS of friends and am attracted to anything with 2 covers (front and back), with lots of flippy pages in between. Call me crazy..... I like to spend my time in boo...

Wanna Fill In?

Tuesday, October, 7, 2008
Needless to say, I haven't quite had the time to spend on book club discussions as I once thought I would. So here's what I need: HELP! If you're interested, let me know. Reply. You know what I mean! I am looking for a few skirt! sisters to share this passion for books as well as the lack of full time ability to give the skirt! book club all that it deserves. If you think you can fuel a discussion, add to a discussion, create topics, or even have other selections of books you would like us to peruse, pray tell. Let's do it together! The book club, I mean. You guys are SO naughty...

Willing to help

I have never been in a book club (so have never led a discussion), but I love to read and I am willing to help out. I got really excited about joining, and then everyone kind of disappeared. Anyway, maybe we could all take turns being in charge of the discussions for a book. Kind of like the movie The Jane Austen Book Club (I think that was the name of it). The characters all picked a different Austen book to be in charge of, and they hosted the discussions at their houses. We can't host the discussions at our houses, but we could each 'host' a different book discussion. Maybe you could post us a few tips on leading a successful discussion?

Video discussions?

I think that's a great idea, everyone is so busy and sharing would really help out I think! What do you guys think of maybe setting up video conferences for our bookclub meetings? ~Ang

Try "The Friday Night Knitting Club" by Kate Jacobs for a lighter read. There is just something magnetic about a group of women getting together spontaneously to discuss, share, and create.I am sure we have all experienced that magical moment when we find ourselves together with someone who will listen with interest as we allow our bottled up thoughts and memories to pour themselves out like rich wine. This day and age who doesn't want to be part of a live, growing sisterhood? Reading my way to happiness, Patricia Goff
