Good morning! 😀
I thought my week was going to be a bit more mellow. I was wrong… but in a good way. 😀 Monday was insane and Tuesday… well Tuesday was Book Club. 😀
If you are a regular reader of Book Journey, you certainly have heard me brag up the Bookies… well… fair warning… I am about to do it again. 😛
What is not to love about a book club that goes the extra mile? Puts a little “oomf” into the reviews with background information, printouts, and yeah… the occasional dress up too.
Last night we reviewed our October Classic pick: Pride and Prejudice. To spice the review up we encouraged everyone to wear hats, and for those who wanted to go the extra mile – dress the Regency period. Two of the gals that for sure were going to dress up with me wound up having to play in a kick ball tournament Tuesday night and unable to attend. I thought for sure I would be the only one who was really getting into the book….
Oh yea of little faith Sheila….
I walked into our restaurant we were meeting at and there were the Bookies, most in hats, and a few that dressed the full era. Ahhh…. I lobe my book club.
Here is a sample of whats to come… more pics will be up later today with my review and the Bookies review of Pride and Prejudice. (Next month we are reading Cleopatra… hmmm…… )




Ah, I like the different versions of the photo! And, yes, you have an awesome book club.
It was fun to play with the pictures Laurel 😀
I just love your book club!
Me too Beth! 😛
How fun! I hope you were able to finish the book! I look forward to seeing how your next meeting goes!
Me too, but sadly I will not be there.. I will be in Honduras. 😀
I so wish the was a book club in my area!! You guys always have so much fun!
We do like to go all out… they make book reading… exceptional. 😀
