Meeting Numero Dos

How is everyone liking The Forest of Hands and Teeth?  I know some people haven't read it yet, but I am setting a date two weeks from now so everyone has time to read it.  The next meeting will be Tuesday, October 4th.  In case you didn't realize yet, The Forest of Hands and Teeth involves 'the unconsecrated,' aka ZOBMIES!  So I shall provide Zombie-themed food, which will be delicious of course.  Bring the book if you want, and your brain (to feed the zombies!)  See you then!

First Book!

The first book we will be reading is The Forest of Hands and Teeth by Carrie Ryan.
 

We will also have a guest speaker at the next meeting by name of Katlin Brown.  She will be reading her inspirational children's book entitled "Shelly the Celly." 

So comment when you get your book or when you are almost done so we can figure out when our next meeting should be.  And if you are commenting about the book, MAKE SURE YOU SAY IF THERE ARE SPOILERS!  Don't give anything away please.

See you at the next meeting!

About the blog...

I know that there are a lot of clubs, sports, jobs, super-cool parties, etc going on after school, so that's why the blog is here!  If you ever miss book club but want to participate in the next meeting, come here.  I will post the title and author of our newest book, so you can see what we are reading next as well as discuss our last book in the comments without going to the meeting. 

I would also like to add a list of our book ideas on here as the year goes on, as well as a ranking of our top five books or something like that :) 

First Meeting!!

Hello everyone!  Book Club is going to have it's very first meeting on Wednesday, September 7th at 2:30 in Mrs. Willertz's room (room 142).  Please come! 

At the first meeting we'll just be talking about when we want to meet, how often, and things like that.  We will also be picking our first book, so bring suggestions!  Anyone is welcome to suggest a book, and we will vote on which of the suggestions we want to read.  Yes, there will be food.  No, you will not have to read yet :)

At the second meeting and all the ones after, we will talk about the last book we just read and then pick a new book.  I think it should be really fun!  This isn't meant to be a serious club or anything--we will just be talking about what we liked and what we didn't, our favorite characters, our favorite parts, and whatever else we want to. 

So please come if you like reading!  See you there!
