Book Club was fun at Judy's house. Her house really is a doll house...it is so tiny! Nice backyard and patio though! Again, we didn't spend much time talking about the book, even after Judy painfully brought her print out discussion questions out. Vic made some great food...I didn't realize that I liked French food that much. We kind of decided on the next host - I think Elizabeth, although it seemed like we forced her to host. The next book is Skinny Bithcing by Jenny Lee.

NO..........1!

I finished reading the book yesterday on my very exciting train ride to the city. I didn't hate the book - yet I didn't really like it either. I am definately glad that it was only 100 pages, because if I had to read any more than that...I probably wouldn't have.

I am also having a hard time finding things to talk about with the book. It would suprise me if we spent more than 10 minutes actually talking about the book at the meeting. Those 10 minutes of course would be spent talking about who does and doesn't like the book...with no discussion attached.

I am not excited about the meeting this time, I am very dissapointed that I don't really care. I am excited for the food and spirits that will be at the meeting however.

I'm glad that I am not the only one who doesn't really see the deeper meaning!

Well, I finally got around to reading this month's book selection. And I'm not sure waht to say.

It was very French philosophical. By that I mean...I didn't get it.

I thought there were some asects that were very sweet. The little prince's connection with his flower, for example. But no matter how I tried to look at it philosophically, I didn't think that he should commit suicide to take care of a plant.

Am I crazy here?

I agree with Jeanette, it is hard to think of things to write about for this book. I have been trying to think of my question for the book club since you know we are all going to have to go around the room and ask one.

I really liked the question from Angry Housewives about which character are you. With that in mind I think I am going to ask which person are you from the planets he visits :)

Won't that be fun, are you the king of nothing who commands you to do what you were already going to do?

are you the vain person who just wants attention and praise without any work?

are you the tippler?

are you the star counting business man who owns nothing and whose life is meaningless?

are you the street lamplighter who cannot sleep because every minute you turn the light on and off?

or are you the geographer who records what other people do in a place with no other people?

I suppose you could also choose the snake or the fox from earth if you really wanted to prove you read carefully.

I am pretty sure I will be the tippler after this meeting!

I have been staring at the screen for about five minutes, literally, with nothing to say. I finished the book. I thought that it was too boring to just enjoy, and I am obviously too stupid to see the philosophical value in it.
