Love you guys!

Book for July
Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm is the book I chose for July because it is a very easy and fun read. I think it will remind us all of the little girls we once were and the dreams we had as children. This story reminds me a lot of the Anne of Green Gables series which are some of my absolute favorite books to read so even though you're busy in July I really encourage you to pick up and get lost in the beautiful and sometimes funny world of Rebecca's with me!

Austenland 2
Like Kimberly, I also finished reading Austenland. It was a really fun read! I think when the movie comes out we should make some girls night plans...
The entire time I was reading this book I kept thinking about what it would be like to go to an 'Austenland' and act the part of a lady etc. It would make me feel so ridiculous! I think I even had a dream about it one night...but don't worry, I am not obsessed with Jane Austen stories.
I really enjoyed this book and look forward to reading anyone else's comments. Oh, Kimberly and Hannah, I will be back in June and I think it's my turn to do book club meeting so I will be in touch with you both!

Austenland
I just finished Austenland last night (it took me 3 days?) and thought I should write about it soon while I still have the motivation in me. Sorry I have neglected to post on the last few books, but I have been reading them! Hope you are all out there still participating too!
I had read Austenland years ago when Bekah introduced me to it, but reading it again made me realize how much I had forgotten. I had totally forgotten how it ended which made it that much more fun and exciting to read. I had also forgotten how funny this book is. I rarely laugh out loud when I am reading books but this one made me do it a few times. My favorite was the "rubbing your nose in the poop of my happiness" line. Where does she come up with these things? I like her candid writing style in this book, it's like reading someone's blog.
Anyways, it was a fun book. Not really much to discuss in depth, just an easy read to help pass the time and make you laugh. I think we all need a book like that once in awhile. Thanks Bekah.
Looking forward to seeing what the movie is like!

April Showers!!!
Hello friends.
I'm so sorry that it has taken me so long to get on here and pick a book. I chose a book that is a personal favorite of mine from one of my favorite authors. Shannon Hale also wrote Princess Academy.
This book is fun, charming, and easy read. I figure, it can be a little spring break for us all. I wish I could attend the "meetings" you've been having but I'd like to hear what everyone's favorite parts of this book are. I have several.
FYI...a movie has been made from this book. I don't have a release date yet, but it'd be fun to see the movie together.
