Book Club Begins!

Tonight was our first Book Club meeting, with nine momstown members in attendance. After we introduced ourselves and talked about our kids - of course - we got cracking on the creation of our 'book list' and talked about books we'd all read before.

We got a little off topic when the discussion started heading towards why and how often little boys play with their 'parts', but after about 30 minutes we managed to get back on track with the book talk!

The thing I like best about this Book Club meeting was getting together with new people and just chatting with other moms!

In addition, our Book Club is made up of avid readers and people who don't read at all... In fact, one member even confessed that the only book she had read since she was in grade seven was Twilight (by Stephenie Meyer). So, obviously if you aren't a big reader, you're still welcome in our Book Club! And, who knows, maybe even the non-reader will grow to love books!

I feel as though I never have time to read, but I'm really excited about some of the books we picked tonight. I also saw some posts on our message board about a lot of our members reading to relax... So, I'm looking forward to that too - if I can stop falling asleep every time I pick up a book!

I'm looking forward to seeing our Book Club grow... and until then - Happy Reading!
