New Book and Big Announcement!
The new book for The Slow Readers Book Club is Alice I Have Been by Melanie Benjamin.
Thank you to everyone who voted! A really big step in the book club is Ms. Benjamin herself will be having a short Q&A with us in the forum!! We are still collaborating on whether it will be a live chat or emailed questions, but in the meantime, read your book to ask away! A really big thank you to Annie!
There are a lot of comments on how the book is hard cover, so it’s a little heavy to carry around- but Amazon has the book available on Kindle, and even if you don’t own a Kindle, they are still available digitally.
Which means you can read it on
your iPhone,
your iPod Touch,
your Mac,
your PC,
your Blackberry,
or if you do have a Kindle, buy it here.
Thanks again and happy reading! If you are still confused on the forum, here are some tips for you! The book is “due” on May 23!
(also, i’ll be getting back to comments and emails this week. lots to catch up to!)
That's super exciting!

I can't believe you guys scored the author of our book on the 2nd selection! You guys rock! My book should be arriving from Amazon shortly. Can't wait to dig in
I am completely excited…I'm already have it on kindle and am going to start asap!!

hollla!
My book arrived last week and I'm ever so excited to read it.
That is so incredible! I am very excited!
Just need to pay off my (ridiculously big) library fine, then i'm putting a hold on this book. (at 65 on 19 books I have abad feeling it will come even slower than Half Broke Horses (182 on 108 books) Hopefully I get it before the Q&A, it sounds like such an exciting opportunity.-indigo
Yay! I'm super excited you were able to connect w/ the author. Her website has some great discussion questions to look over after you've read the book as well.
the book was in soft cover (is that even the correct term??) AND on sale at my book store! l.o.v.i.n.g…anyone in Australia head to Borders.
i'm on it!! well, first i have to get the book, and then i'll be all over it!
oh this is PERFECT!!! i have been wanting to read this book so now i have the motivation to get it! thnx for telling me about the book club! xo
That looks like an interesting book!Just stumbled by & I love your blog!

Can't wait to start. That's awesome you were able to get a Q&A for us with the author!! Big step! I so so love these late "due dates" for the books – perfect. I think the book club is a big hit!
