"There is no frigate like a book to take us lands away." (Emily Dickinson)
Welcome to the Bloggy Book Club, where we shall read to our heart's content.
Another Blog for Readers & Bluestockings
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
For the Bloggy Book Club Reading Selections for 2009, please click HERE. Click on the uppercased red book title to be taken to Amazon.com where you can read more about the book and order a copy.
Please note, Amazon.com usually offers free shipping on all of these titles if your order totals $25 or more. I buy a 2 or 3 books at a time, just enough to get the free shipping, and then go back another day and do it again. Not buying all 12 at a time helps lessen the load on my budget while buying 2 or 3 at a time saves money on shipping.
Most of these titles can also be found the library if you want to borrow the book instead of buy it. (You might want to take notes on a separate sheet of paper though so you can remember things that impacted you---for yourself and to share with the group---and to spare yourself the library fine of marking up a borrowed book!)
Lastly, if you have any questions, please email me HERE.
Happy Reading!
