Day 1 - 18 April 2011

My first day of Book Club! The book in topic: Eat Pray Love.
Now I have never read the book but I loved the movie. It was inspirational, and it really makes you think about life and where exactly you're going in your life.

But let's start at the beginning. Last week my dear new friend Melissa asked me if I wanted to join her book club. I love reading, so I thought, why not, let's face it...I kind of needed new friends and it will be good for me. Read new books, get others opinions. Good.
But franky I was scared. I didn't know anyone, besides Melissa, and I didn't know what to expect. But for once in my life I was open to something new, change things up a bit. And boy was I surprised! They're girls....like me! All 7 of them!

It was so welcome to know that I could sit there and talk about books and boys and life with girls like me. Girls who are intrested in what I have to say and to hear their opinions on different topics, and to enjoy 'wine' o'clock as Melissa dubbed it. It was fabulous!

Thanks girls...you rock!!

So the next book on the agenda, which we have about 6 weeks to disect, is "This is Not a Book" by Keri Smith. This is bound to be intresting! So watch this space as I try to complete as many tasks in this book as I can before the next Book Club meeting!
