Books with Friends


Sunday afternoon found me finishing another book. Since then I have been scouring stores, online, the B&N eBook selections and my own bookshelf for my next read. In doing so I have lost approximately 4 days that I could have spent reading. I could have finished at least one book in that time!



While chatting with a friend, I brought up the issue of not knowing which to book to read next. She recommended an author I had only heard of in passing. A few clicks on the web and I was startled by how great her books sounded.



*Cut to the Chase*



Here's the deal. For the next month (may be longer depending on the response) I will read books that have been chosen by everyone from my closest friends to my social network acquaintances. No strings attached. Every book I read will be reviewed here on my blog "See [Phoebe] Jane Read"



There are only two rules:



1) The book selected cannot be one that I have already read.

- If someone chooses a book I've read before then I will let that person know and they can chose another book.



2) You have to have read the book selected

- This is just to keep people from suggesting very arduous reading such as The 9/11 Commission Report: Final Report of the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States unless you read it and thought it was good.



That's it! No other rules. so go for it, Suggest the book you love, the book that inspired you, the book that made you laugh or made you think....



No deadline but the sooner you send in your selection, the more likely it will be read. Feel free to message me here or email me at ms.phoebejane@gmail.com



Happy Reading!
