I received 'The Swan' today and put Dolittle's name and mine in the front. Now to read.

woo hoo!

Radiant Aunt:That's ok girl, anytime you are going to be home and want to put your name on a list, feel free. I think it is going to be great fun!!
I have already read Swan and mailed it to Eriisa. I did enjoy it. Now I am reading The Good Wife Strikes Back by Elizabeth Buchan. Then I have Blow Fly by Patricia Cornwell! Guess I am going to be reading a lot!!

Dolittle: I was just on a site of Frances Mayer, reading abit from Swan and the sound of it is interesting, however i shouldn't join right now.. in a month I go on a Missionary Trip and im preparing for that right now.. I might want to join during the summer, when the ammount of activities have lowered drastically and the evenings are made to read outside on the beach or so.. :-) Ennjoy the book, all of you who are on the list!

Radiant Aunt:Yes, we are mailing real books..will write our ID# in it as we read one and pass it on to the next person on the list. I think there are 3 in line for that book now but we can always start another one going around. It isn't just a US bookclub, I want it to be for everyone to enjoy!

Dolittle:Are you mailing real books to eachother? How fun! Is this a US only bookclub, or are you mailing also internationally?

We have started a book exchange and right now we are discussing Swan by Frances Mayes which I have mailed to Eriisa and then it will go to the next in line...you will find a link to the list above.
We will discuss any books though. What are your preferences?

Blush or no blush Which books are you discussing?

amandalove:Oh you misguided girl!!

*runs out the door*

Eriisa: its ok we luv yous

Eriisa:

well,





Extra!! Extra!! Read all about it!!


Dolittle says Hrqls is good at blushing!!!!

Dolittle: ssshh dont let the rest know ;)

Hrqls: why blush? you is good and that's a fact!!

Dolittle: dont make my blush

Hrqls:thanks for putting that link on...
good job!!

Eriisa:Whichever everyone prefers is ok with me. The ID's is a good idea as well.
Did you read ajtgirl's post?

Eriisa: nice idea, done

LOL, ok,

next question. Name or BK ID in front? wink?

Eriisa: Sounds great and here I was thinking I would have to write it all down..you is so smart...cough, cough!
BTW, the book is on it's way to you but I forgot to write my name in the front so could you do that for me! I thank you ma'am!!

Hqrls, can you put a link up for this called 'Swan by Frances Mayes - Request List' ?

Now what we can do is edit that message with additonal names so we will know who it goes to next. We can also do the same thing with other books.

Sound good?

Eriisa (finished and passed it on)

If you would like to be added to the list, please post a message onto the board, and we will add your name!

I was thinking we need to make a request list, but I'm not sure....... oh wait, I got an idea!!!!

amandalove: Will do girlfriend! Has to go to two others before you but it will get there.

Add me to the list for Swan. I am mainly mystery but not stephen king type thats too scary.

ajtgirl: I like a mixture of books from mystery to comedy. A good love story would be in order also. Actually I think most of us enjoy most any really good book!

Hi I just found out about this place.

I have just given away 4 of my favorite books to a new friend

But I have many more to share

I would love to discuss what anyone else is reading

Ok, then our "Book-A-Round" is a reality. Let anyone that is interested know about it and we just might have a real good thing going here!

yeah, I like that!

baddessi: What fun that will be..you don't have to send Swan back to me tho dessi, find somebody else that wants to read. We will each put our name in a book and pass it on. Cool idea!!!

oh cool, and then when I'm done I'll send it back to Dolittle with the Janet Evanowich book I wanted her to read! LOL
How cool- it's a ...."Book-a-round"!!! : )

LOL, oh goody, the Brainking Book Ring!

baddessi: Hon, I don't mind at all. I caught a fantastic sale on books and love to share...pass it around!!

Can I be next in line for Dolittle's book Eriisa???
You don't mind if she passes it on, do yo Dolittle???

Eriisa: ROFL, Bill reads his book while the Olympics is on...devoted fan eh!!

LOL, now why doesn't that surprise me! lol

Eriisa: Yes, I do have your addy..will send it in a day or so! Hope you enjoy it!!
Jim and my Bill are on the same wave length!!LOL

Sorry Do! I did read this and started to answer then got distracted and forgot.

I an NOT admitting that I do this all day long. (Jim laughs at me)

I think I'd love to read it. do you still have my addy?

Eriisa: Would you like to have that book?
I would be happy to send it to you.

Eriisa: I caught a book sale at WalMart and picked that one up because it sounded interesting. Now I am going to look for more of her work.

I thought I had heard of the author!

Eriisa: Story of a Georgia family and their trials and tribulations. Frances Mayes also wrote Under the Tuscan Sun, Bella Tuscany, and In Tuscany. I plan to buy some of those!

Dolittle: What's it about?
