(Oh, last thing ….heh heh, I thought it was so funny when Screwtape turned into the centipede XD XD)
Yeah, I also found that hilarious 🙂

So it’s been a long time since I posted here and the world has somehow tiptoed into June. I don’t know how. So I’m thinking we should most probably get a move on with our next book. I think I’ll post the forms for suggestions tomorrow. Any thoughts?
"Io non ho bisogno di denaro.
Ho bisogno di sentimenti."I am leaving next week for a five-month missions school, so I won’t be able to participate. Hope you guys have fun though!

I’m leaving on vacation tomorrow to a place with no internet. I’ll be gone until July 10. Assuming we have a month to read the book again, I should have time to read whatever is chosen when I get back.

Devote reddamus!Hello! I think it’s really cool you guys have a book club going on and was wondering if I could participate in the next book discussion (whatever it is).

Hello! I think it’s really cool you guys have a book club going on and was wondering if I could participate in the next book discussion (whatever it is).
@theshadow That would be wonderful! So basically we’re going to have about a week to suggest books we’d like the group to read; there’s the link below you can click on to do that. Then, once we’re done suggesting, we’ll move on to voting for which options we like the most. That will also be done via google forms. We’ve agreed that a month is a reasonable time span to read the selected book, but if it’s really short or really long we can extend or shorten the time as needed. Once the month is over, we’ll discuss the book and sort of compare thoughts, opinions, etc.
@esther-c @theducktator @folith-feolin @grcrHere is the link for suggestions: https://forms.gle/QQf3HgNFa2tmvTPu5
We have agreed that suggestions should not include:
- Magic
- Excessive swearing
- Vivid descriptions of sex
- Vivid descriptions of the occult, or depictions of the occult in a positive way
We’ve got until July 4th to suggest. I’m putting two suggestions per form, but if you would like to fill it out twice, be my guest. You most definitely can suggest the same books as last time–a lot of them looked super cool! 🙂
"Io non ho bisogno di denaro.
Ho bisogno di sentimenti."Thank you, and I’ll put in a suggestion soon!

This is a final call to anyone who would like to make suggestions. Tomorrow we’re going to move on to voting, if I can get to it tonight or tomorrow morning. Otherwise we’ll have to wait another day, because I’m kind of bogged up with summer school. Thanks! 🙂

I’ve tried several times to post and Wyoh keeps eating it, so I’m keeping this short and sweet because I have no effort left: Time to vote. Here is the link.

Happy summer vacation!

Looks like we’re reading A Basket of Flowers by Christoph von Schmid! 90% of people voted for it. We also didn’t really get many requests to shorten or lengthen the time span to read it, so we’ll stick to a month. Discussions will start August 15th.
Have fun!
"Io non ho bisogno di denaro.
Ho bisogno di sentimenti."I went to place a hold on this book and my library doesn’t have it. I will try to get it on interlibrary loan, but sometimes those take a while. Ideally it will come in time that I can read it.
