The Second Chance Book Club

It's that time again! Time to get reading. We (Aubrey and I) love to read, but without some accountability, we're horrible at it. So we will be going for it again this year. Please join us.

This year we sent out a survey on our blogs to see what you would like to read. And we hope that we've found some good ones. The responses to the survey varied from "All The Books!" to "
Books that will be movies in 2016-2017" and "Intense, heartfelt, thought provoking". Looking at our new list, I think we should be okay!


Please join us in reading and discussing every month--we discuss the month's book on the last Saturday of the month. The hope is that the questions will be up for you the week of our discussion. I've also had a few requests to have a real life club...so if you're around and interested, shoot me an email!

 We are looking forward to reading more now that we're real grown ups with real grown up jobs. 

If you join us in our discussion, stick our button on your post!
