A TO Z BOOK CHALLENGE discussion

Hello again,

Here is something that hopefully will be fun for all who part take of it. If you are interested please sign up and August 31st, groups will be announced and discussion groups will be set up.

The groups will contain 3-4 people, who as a group will choose a book that they all agree upon reading. Then the group of people will agree upon a date to start talking about the book they read. This date must work for all in the group. Then the group will talk about what they thought about the book from what they liked to what they hated about the book. Also the books should be either Christian, Inspirational or Clean.

Please sign up below if you are interested in being part of Group Reading.

i would love to sign up for this what do i need to do

Mia you just did it by saying you wanted to be a part. It might just be you and I for the first month but hey we can still have fun. Tomorrow is the last day for sign up so who knows we might get another one

I will sign up

we will have fun!!!

Great Jessie. I think we will Mia that is for sure.

SEPTEMBER GROUP READING IS CLOSED.

If you would like to join look for it next month to join in the fun.

Ok so Mia and Jessie what type of books do you guys enjoy reading. I mostly read romance in a historical, contemporary, regency, and Amish.

i know this is closed but will be reading books also so that i wont fall behind on the series

put me in next month

Janine,

I read inspirational romance, Amish stories, western love stories, Christian books, books with animals.

Well I thought about three Amish books that we could think about. It seems that Amish is one thing that we (Mia, Jessie and myself) all agree on. The books are An Amish Garden, A Stranger's Gift, or maybe Love Still Stands. If you have some other ideas shout them out.

hi ladies :)

I haven't read many Amish.. but i am enjoying the one Jessie picked for me so far! i usually read historical fiction types but I am open to more Amish

Well Jessie do you like historicals?

Janine
I am not sure if i have read any?

Well then with Mia open to more Amish, and Jessie hasn't really read historicals, what would you guys think about then reading "An Amish Garden". I am thinking this because it is four novellas (about 100 pages each) and then talk about each one as we are done reading? This way if Mia really can't get into this book we can stop anytime. Just a thought. What do you guys think?

OK. I will get it from the library.
thanks,
Jessie

Jessie I just looked at my library and there is a waiting list, are you able to see online if you are able to get it quickly otherwise maybe that wont be a good choice.

ok ..

my library doesn't have it.. i will have to buy it .. it might take a wk or so to get to me

Ok then lets scratch that. Maybe a "Love Finds You" book. Is there any state you guys want to read???

i can look at a few Amish boo and make a suggestion :)
hopefully we can find one that we each can get at the library
i am willing to pay for it if is only a few dollars.

have you all read this series "the daughter of promise" Plain Perfect

That is the problem Mia, Amish books never seem to be cheap LOL. But I am thinking most libraries have the "Love Finds You" series which is why I suggested that LOL

:) sorry i have a very small library i live in a small town.. but there is this website called thriftbooks.com they have gently used books and free shipping. i can ususally get a book for 3 dollars

i have a few on my kindle. hard thing is to know what you all have read and haven't :)

Here are three "Love Finds You" books that might work:

This is a modern story: Love Finds You in Humble, Texas

This story is set in 192: Love Finds You in Daisy, Oklahoma

This is a story set in the wild west: Love Finds You in Tombstone, Arizona

And I am thinking in the future these groups need to start sooner LOL :D. Oh well live and learn uh?

Jessie do you read kindle books if so I know there are a few free ones that we can read?

There is Paradise Valley (http://www.amazon.com/Paradise-Valley...)

And there is The Choice (http://www.amazon.com/Choice-Lancaste...)

Well I need to get moving for I am behind on some things so I need to play catch up. You guys figure out what you guys want to read and I will catch up later ok? I am good with just about anything. Except Courting Cate for it is written in first person. For some reason I really dislike first person.

paradise valley sounds great to me!!

I can get Paradise Valley at my library. Also another amish series is A Merry Heart By Wanda E. Brunstetter. Just let me know.

There is 4 or more books in the series

Good morning Jessie, I am so excited we will all be reading together. i just looked up a merry heart and it appears Janine has already read that one

Good Morning all, I am looking forward to reading "Paradise Valley" and talking about it. When do you guys think would be a good time to talk about it? I wont be able to read it until, at the earliest mid-week next week.

As for the "Merry Heart" Jessie I think I might just have to re-read the series for it has been a while since I have read them.

how about we start reading it monday i should be able to read it in a few wks is that too long?

Nope not to me.

Ok I will request it from the library

awesome!! glad we found one

I will start reading once I get it.

You are not going to believe this. I got a book called Paradise Valley. It is not the one you picked. I am such a dummy.

Are you sure Jessie who is it by?

I do plan on reading the book on Sunday so I will be ready to talk about it when you all are next week :D

It is by Robyn Carr it is a good story line but too much cussing and some sex in it. That is when I knew it was not what you had picked. There is more than one paradise valley. I reserved it so hopefully it will get here soon. Or i will try the kindle version.

the kindle version is completely free if that helps with that choice. Yeah this is about the amish by dale crammer LOL.

here is the link for the kindle.
http://www.amazon.com/Paradise-Valley...

I will start with the kindle and can pick up the book at the library tomorrow. Been sleeping all day not feeling well due to my siactia nerve in my back and legs. I need the large print easier to read for me. Thanks for your help. I can't believe I did that I thought what a dope I am.

Oh don't feel bad Jessie I have done the same thing several times.

thanks have a blessed day. I slept all day yesterday so i hope to get my reading back on schedule today

Guys I just dont think I can read "Paradise Valley" I have tried and I have gotten through the first 7 chapter but frankly it is so boring to me. I just cant get into it. Are you guys having the same problem???

no i am enjoying it! lol
