i deleted the last thread as that was for seeing if there was any interest this is for the discussion etc.

i would rather no science fiction books and i have had the request for no science fiction books from another.
i don't mind fantasy books actually some of my favourtie books are fantasy.

if you have read it as some you have are you willing to read it again?

i didnt sign up, but i have read pride and prejudice this year in my english class. i've got to say it was one of the few school books i have actually enjoyed and liked and would most likely have read it outside of class.

the indepth analysis we did with tone, diction, structure, blah blah blah, did reveal more meaning to it but the overall story was enjoyable and kept me reading. i really didnt want to put it down.

if i ever get the time, id love to read some of jane austen's other work.

Oooh, excellent. I'm actually partway through this one at the moment anyways.

Do we have a deadline for the reading? Just to say, if we aren't all done at the same time there could be spoilerage.

In two and a half weeks we will be holding a discussion. The date will be about...May 9. Maybe a little more than two and a half weeks, but that's the date. Sound okay?

No, it's perfectly fine I'm sure it was a little unclear at first what with the creating the club and then the deletion of the other thread. You're good.

hi all sorry for the confussion created by me deleting the other thread. not making excuses but when i tried to start this thread it got combined. with the other one which you all knew about.

as said by hyatt[x]core
Quote:

this is far from an exclusive club. it is for anybody who wants to join in the reading and disscussion of the books. it was started to disscuss books and also to get to know other people on the board through a common ground.

sorry also if people feel that they aren't being included that is not intended. i am just abit behind on adding people to the list at the start but no i have a written list beside me at the moment.

on a different note, i will talk to hyatt[x]core about the random partnerships for 2nd book review as mentioned in the top.

anyone can join the disscussion and sorry again for any confussion i created .
