Thanks to Dani for taking over the book club e-mails. I'll get a schedule made up that we can pass around and hopefully get volunteers signed up.
I got a Kindle for Christmas (which I love) and a few of our 2012 books have free downloads:
The Importance of Being Earnest
Frankenstein and Dracula
Letters of a Woman Homesteader (possible pick)
I think a couple are in the $3.99 or less category too:
A Separate Peace
A Tree Grows in Brooklyn
I bought A Daughter's Walk, so if anyone else has a Kindle, you can borrow it from me. I just haven't figured out how to do that yet.
I also read a list of things that you should do to have a successful book club in an e-mail that Oprah sends to me. I'm happy to report that we're doing all of them. There was this idea for December that we might keep in mind for next year.
13. Take December Off
Nobody has time to finish a novel during the holidays. Have everyone bring in a short, memorable piece to read out loud, like a poem, a few paragraphs from a novel or article, or even a meaningful personal letter.

Finally, I'm going to try to get our bookshelf restocked on the side of this blog. I never know how to do it, but somehow I've gotten it to work the last couple years.
