Tina,
Thank you for your leadership of the group and finding the books to circulate, questions for discussion, etc!
Would it work to have two reads suggested/month and members select the one they want to read first? If one has a long waitlist, people could switch to the other.
Cons –
We’d have two to discuss instead of just one and time may not allow to cover them both.
Puts pressure on those who want to read the books suggested because there would be twice as many! (I’m one of those who is way behind now and I want to read the past months but can hardly get the current read done so doubling the options may drive me crazy! J So much to do – so little time.)

Subject: April recap
Good afternoon, Ladies!
It was a pleasure attending book group last night. I can’t help but feel such a sense of pride having all of you in the book group. You are all so amazing and talented! It is an honor to have you in our group. Thank you for being you and for giving me the honor to be in the group with you. I truly am so very proud.
The blog is now up to date.

The following people have titles to suggest: Tina (August), Judy(September), and Jeanette(October). Oh my goodness we are already booked out to November, 2013. ;0)
Shirley, would you like to take my spot in August for that read you were raving about? I can wait…
Side note: We (Shelly & I) are looking into buying the books suggested last night. Maggie, I added South of Broad by Pat Conroy as your selection for November. I wanted to make sure that is what you wanted? Just let me know.
I would like to know what you guys think: I know it is tough for us to get through waiting lists in time for the next read. Do you guys have any suggestions to assist in this process?
Tina
