My friend, Kendall, is always scheming up great ideas for our group of friends to do (we're minus one in this picture).

This past week, she proposed that we start a book club. I AM SO EXCITED!!! I think it's a great idea to keep our brains active, and to help prevent them from going to mush now that some of us are on summer break (not me, I work all summer... except for this summer because I'm taking off to go to Africa!!! :-)

Anyway, the book Kendall chose for our first Book Club selection is called
Twilight. Has anyone ever heard of it? Well, I hadn't, but apparently it's a pretty big deal. It's the first in a series written by Stephanie Meyer, and it is supposed to be turned into a movie later this year. To find out more about the author and book, check
this out. I haven't actually read through much of this because I don't want to risk coming across something that will ruin the book for me.
However, I do know enough about the book to know that this isn't the kind of story I would generally enjoy. That's good though, sometimes we need to break our own boundaries. If anyone wants to join us in reading, just leave a comment and let me know. I'll post a schedule once we figure it out. Also, I'll keep everyone posted on how it's going!

Ooh, Ooh, Not me! Not me! I would rather have a sharp stick stuck in my eye, stampeeded by a herd of elephants, and ran over by a frieght train!
