Blogging Book Club

I have a proposal for you all...

I know everyone's life is crazy, because, well it is life. But I wanted to start a Blogging Book Club. Since the worst, and best, part of a Book Club is actually finding a time where everyone's' schedules align and it is possible to get together, I thought it would be fun to do one here, on my blog.

Here is how I see it working.

I will pick the first book and will give a date, about a month away, when I will write a little piece about it. Now, your part comes in...you have to read the book in the month or so allotted then read my post on the book and if you feel like it, leave a comment with your thoughts and views!

I know life is crazy with kids, work, houses, husbands, family obligation, and practices, but I think it is really important to spend some time reading, and I will try to pick books that are very catching, while at the same time meaningful and engaging.

Okay, I know I wasn't super convincing, but I hope you join me!

Here is the First Book of the Blogger Book Club!

What Alice Forgot is an engaging book about a 39 year old mother of three who takes a spill at the gym during her weekly Friday Spin Class. When she comes to, her memory has wiped away 10 years and she thinks it is 1998 where her free-spirited self and her perfect husband are renovating their first home, while eagerly awaiting the birth of their first child. As she starts to hear about the missing 10 years, Alice is realizing she did not become the person she thought she would be. In fact, she doesn't even recognize her gym-obsessed self who is in the middle of a nasty divorce from the husband she can only remember being madly in love with, and is terrified by the three children she has no recollection of having or raising. (Written by me...so if you want more insight check it out on Amazon)

What Alice Forgot is available on Amazon, Kindle, Barnes and Noble, and Nook, so I hope you take a second, have it delivered wirelessly to your favorite device and share Alice's journey with me! Please leave a comment or shoot me an email if you want to join my Blogging Book Club this month!

Hope to see you there!
