The Read Like Crazy Book Club

Read Like Crazy 007Hello book lovers,

The Read Like Crazy Book Club begins this Sunday, February 16th.

Here’s how it will work.

1)      Read one book a week. I know!  That’s a lot for me, too, sometimes. But, you see, one of my New Year’s Resolutions was to read more.  And here I am.  And here you are, too. So let’s grab our coffee and chocolates and settle in together.

2)      If you do not read a book a week  you agree to be punished. You will be locked in a hotel room with Keanu Reeves for three days.  I know. Torture. Get your reading done. (Keanu is a secret member of this group.)

3)      The Read Like Crazy book group is for six weeks.

4)      Read whatever you want.

5)      Or read with me. Or read a book now and then with me. Here’s my list. Starting this Sunday, I will begin reading The Orphan Train. Next: Honolulu by Alan Brennert. The Hypnotist’s Love Story. The Poisonwood Bible. Labor Day. The Good Lord Bird.

6)      On Sunday, on facebook, look for this same stack of books. I will post how my reading week went and, hopefully, I will have finished the book. If not, I will be HONEST, and keep my pathetic and whiny excuses to a minimum. I will review the book, then list the next book I’m reading. Do the same, on my post.

7)      Treat this as you would any other book group. We all love books and reading, so let’s talk and share. However, feel free to chat about other things, too. Make new online friends. Laugh. Enjoy.

8)      Be ready for Sunday. Choose your books. Read Like Crazy. Welcome.

    • I have read Gifts from the Sea and The Book Thief. i think I MAY have read Henry’s Sisters.
      Remember to post this information, above, on my facebook page as that’s where we’ll be having online Read Like Crazy Book Club, not here.
