Welcome to July. Goodness where is the time going this year? It seems to be going by very fast!
Random Question: How do you feel about book of the month type clubs/groups?
I used to belong to some fantastic book groups when I lived in Minnesota. We didn’t have books we read at the same time but we got together and talked about our reads and just enjoy time together. Really I find myself missing that rather a lot. I have not been able to find a group like that since moving from Minnesota and I wish I could. I tried a monthly book club locally to where I am now but I just found that I didn’t really fit with that. I like to read what I want to read and well most of the books being read by that group were not ones I really enjoy. Not one historical in the bunch! Gah! And they were not willing to listen to the new girls thoughts on changing it up a little. So in the end I stopped going, fair enough not every group is for every person. But I do miss getting together with like minded people, friends and having a nice chat about books and just life and everything else. How about you?
I find book clubs tough because of my limited reading time. Maybe one day when I have more time. Hope you have a great week.

Thank you I hope that you have a great week too.
The kind of book club you described where everyone reads their own books but you have a place to come and discuss them, that sounds amazing. It’s basically what we all hope our blogs will be, only with actual human interaction lol

Yeah that was one way it felt for sure and I really enjoyed the human interaction part of it in Minnesota. I miss it for sure it was great.
