I've been reading a lot more frequently recently, and one of my 23 Before 23 goals is to read at least one new book a month, but also, to write about them on this blog. So I thought to myself, what better way to encourage myself to write about the books I read, then to start up a book club!
So here's how I'm hoping this will work:
- Each month someone will be chosen at random to pick our month's Kindle book.
- The book will have to be under £5
- The last Sunday of every month there will be a BKBC chat in the Facebook group that I have created
- If you want to get involved for the first month then please join the Facebook group!
- We will use #BKBC on Twitter, so you can follow it on there
- The book will have to be available on Amazon Kindle.
- You are free to blog about your thoughts on the book after the monthly BKBC chat. (so that you don't accidentally share spoilers if others aren't as far ahead as you are!)
I've already chosen this month's book so that we can get started as soon as possible, seeing as we've already lost a week. This month's book is:
You can currently pick up the Kindle version of this book for a mere 99p on Amazon! And here's the description:
'During a snowstorm in England in 1910, a baby is born and dies before she can take her first breath.
During a snowstorm in England in 1910, the same baby is born and lives to tell the tale.
What if there were second chances? And third chance? In fact an infinite number of chances to live your life? Would you eventually be able to save the world from it's own inevitable destiny? And would you even want to?
Life after Life follows Ursula Todd as she lives through the turbulent events of the last century again and again. With wit and compassion, Kate Atkinson finds warmth even in life's bleakest moment, and shows an extraordinary ability to evoke the past. Here she is at her most profound and inventive, in a novel that celebrates the best and worst of outselves'
And there you have it! It's that simple, if you want to get involved then check out the Facebook Group, and I look forward to sharing my thoughts with you all!
sounds good. I've downloaded the book and requested to join the group. Looking forward to it :-)
