Book Club Summer Swap

Looking for a little something new to stir things up at your next book club meeting? I've got a fun idea.

Aside from the book of the month that you've all read and loved or hated --- bring a favorite summer read from your dusty bookshelf. Throw them all in a pile and either blindly take turns drawing or do a swap with them. That game where you pick a gift, and someone can steal your book or pick a new one is always a fun way to swap. If they steal yours your stuck with theirs.

Fun-fun-fun and a great way to add a new author to your list. Some of my favorite authors have come out of happy accidents just like this.

Swappin' Summer Fun!

July Book Club Planner Fun

It's July, and I have a fun suggestion for you for your bookclub meeting this month.

For the hostess of this month's bookclub, everyone bring one flower from your garden, and if you don't have one make one out of toilet paper or pick a dandelion ;).

Even, dandelions and wild weeds can look pretty in a cluster. Treat your hostess to this free little smorgasbord of color to set the tone and smiles for the get-together.

How will you top it in August? How about everyone bring one piece of their favorite candy .... and your hostess will have a pretty pile of sweets.

Happy bookclubbing,
Nancy
