From our First Meeting

This is what the 8 of us decided on Saturday:
- We will continue reading "I've Got Some Lovin' To Do" (The Doris Diaries, Part One)
- Our regular meeting date/time will be the first Saturday of the month at 6:30pm
- The location will be determined at the previous month's meeting
- We will select books based on the recommendation of someone who is present at the meeting
- We'll go through the present members alphabetically, until we get to someone who has a recommendation**
- That person would be "the host" for the next meeting, meaning they pick where we go. For instance, for the next meeting I am "host" BUT I live in a 1BR apartment. So i asked if anyone would be willing to host us at their house, and two people graciously offered.

**This way, everyone will have a chance to recommend a book, and if you don't have a recommendation, no big deal, you'll get a chance at some point. And MUCH less e-mailing, no voting, blah blah blah, it seemed a winner all-around.

The book we are reading can be bought on Amazon (if Books INC is out) in paperback, hardcover, OR E-READER! (Kindle edition is a whopping $3.99)

Next month we'll be meeting at Erin P's house, she'll send out an evite 2 weeks before to get a headcount for beverages/snacks. PLEASE RSVP to the EVITE! And, if you're willing and able, let her know what food/drink, if anything, you plan to bring to share with the group.

I think I got everything, let me know if you have any questions or suggestions!

xoxo,
Becky
