Friday Hops, 9/13/13

This hop is hosted by Billy over at Ramblings of a Coffee Addicted Writer. Every week bloggers answer a question and then visit other blogs that are participating.  This week's question is:

Are you in a book club? How does your book club choose books? How far in advance do you choose?

A: I'm not in a face-to-face book club. I used to belong to one but it was too far for me and the ladies who ran it were inconsistent. I also didn't like how selective they were when it came to choosing their books.

The only "club" that I belong to is the one on Shelfari called Bibliophile. I belong to other groups on there but Bibliophile is the one I co-run and the one I participate in the most. We have monthly book-of-the-months that are suggested by members every month and then are voted on. We tend to have about 4 for each month and there are discussion for each book. This is the only "club" I belong to.



 

 

Book Beginnings on Friday is hosted by Rose City Reader and The Friday 56 is hosted at Freda's Voice.

 My Own Mr. Darcy by Karey White

The beginning: "The theater was nearly empty. It might have been because of the late hour but I suspected it was because this movie was going to be a snoozefest."
 
Page 56: "Chad didn't let go until the last note had faded out completely. We stood there for just a moment after the music ended. Then he brushed his lips against my temple. I had a little trouble catching my breath."

 

Though the opener was okay, I loved the chapter that it came from. It was really cute and I really loved how Lizzie's reaction to watching P&P for the first time were the same reactions I had.

The lines from page 56 make me wonder who Chad is. Is this Lizzie's Mr. Darcy?
