This is a book club! We may not see each other face-to-face or meet at the local coffee shop but I guarantee we are going to read some great books and have some great discussions!
To say that I love to read is an understatement. I truly LOVE to read and will ignore my entire family if I am totally into my book. But, it’s because I can appreciate the labor that goes into a well thought out story and its so rude to interrupt a crucial plot point! I enjoy that reading takes me to other places or that it makes me see things in a totally different way. I feel like reading can be a way for us to understand the human condition whether it’s through humor, sadness or angst. My favorite part of reading though is the discussion aspect. It makes me feel like I know people better by the way they respond to a story, whether it’s in agreement or against what I feel.
By education, I was an English Literature major but I have to confess that while I do enjoy the classics and have my favorites, it’s some of the contemporary novels that are really sparking my interest these days. I have my moods that must also be satisfied…sometimes I want funny and sometimes I want sad. Sometimes biographical and sometimes fantasy.
My hope for this blog is to generate some thoughtfulness on humanity…but mostly, it is my selfish desire to have some friends and family to talk about books with! So come along with me and we can figure out where we want the next story to take us.
Happy reading y’all! Jennifer
This is fabulous!! A virtual book club is perfect for all of us book lovers who cannot always commit to a specific date or time due to family, work, and life. This is much more flexible… and right up my alley. I can’t wait and am really excited. Looking forward to exploring some amazing books with everyone! – Jess 😊
