    hello, Elspbeth! I recently finished reading Come, Thou Tortoise (after much effort to obtain it since you cannot get this book in the US!) and enjoyed it a great deal. It is really near the top of my all time favorites list! I am still puzzled thou about one thing.... near the end of the book when Audrey is visitng Grandmother she (Grandmother) says, "I love my sons, Audrey. Both of them." Both? What did I miss? I have read and reread.... As a former reading teacher, I feel my comprehension skills should have been up to the task :)

    Whoops! I see you've already found the thread. :-) Thanks for voting. If it does happen that we read one of the books you've already read, hopefully you'll still be able to join in the discussion afterwards.

    Hi elpsbeth. You are already a member of the group (that's why I left you the message!). An update: we are doing a group read for sure now. There is a thread posted where you can vote on which of five books you'd like to read. See you there!

    Hi! I’m from the Canada group, just popping by to let you know that we are trying to drum up interest in doing a group read. We have a thread started for anyone who is interested to let us know they are interested. Once we know there will be a few people, we’ll then decide on a book (Canadian author, of course!). Hope you decide to join us!

    Hi there! I'm just dropping by to welcome you to The 100+ Book Challenge. The idea of the group is pretty much self explanatory - try to read 100 or more books in a one year period. If you do have any questions, please feel free to send a message to me or Tenia. In the meantime, good luck reaching your goal!

    on my shelf there is a book listed which I didn't read Nights in Rodanthe by Nicholas Sparks. How do I remove it from my shelf?

    You sure got into that box of books fast! I don't blame you. To-night I am going to start reading A Thousand Splendid Suns. Read in two days Love Marriage- a new book out. I really enjoyed it as it was written in a different form.

    Hello I have agreed to joining the group but who knows if I will have a chance to read any of the books. Do you have one you think I might enjoy to start with. PS I have changed my screen name to Elizabeth - my actual middle name since I thought I should not have my real name there. C

    Highly recommend "Norman Bray in the performance of his life" by Trevor Cole - I think you will really like it!
