A lot of us have been reading this summer, but too busy to make it to Book Group. Hopefully everyone is keeping track of the books that they’ve especially enjoyed. Anyone can meet with us to select the books 2012. In the past Sue Ann, Lyn, Kay, Pam and I have chosen our titles. We’d really like to get input from everyone, especially from some who are younger than us (below 50!). We’ll take suggestions at any time, the sooner the better because we like to have someone read them through before January to make sure they fit our RS standards.
Lyn brought up an idea at our last meeting about having a yearly theme. Some book groups have done this and have been able to delve more deeply into a subject. They can choose fiction, nonfiction, church books, young readers, or just about any genre like we do now. This year we’ve had a few books that deal with family history, and we have three coming up that deal with Jews and Germany in WWII. We could have chosen one of those topics as a theme. You can also keep it very broad and have a theme of relationships, America, or serving others. Let’s think about it.
If you have any ideas for themes, books, or something different to do at our meetings, just leave a comment, E-mail anyone in the group, or just talk to us at church. This book group has been going for decades. We want it to get better and better.
