Bloggers Kindle Book Club: Introducing December!

I am so excited to finally share with you the first book that the Blogger Kindle Book Club will reading, The Christmas Bake Off. Of course for the month of December our book would have to have a Christmas theme!

Here's what the Amazon page says about the book:

With Christmas just around the corner, the residents of Skipley village are gearing up for the annual bake off, and tensions are high. 

Winning means a lot to everyone involved - talented cake-shop owner Katie dreams of baking stardom, Rachel wants to prove she's more than a stay-at-home mum, and John hopes his culinary skills will impress the woman he loves. 

But when the judges discover that some cakes have been tampered with, the villagers' loyalties are called into question - whose ambition would stretch to sabotage, and why? 

The Christmas Bake Off is an exclusive short story from Abby Clements, author of Meet Me Under the Mistletoe. This ebook edition also includes bonus recipes for cinnamon cookies and vanilla and almond biscuits.

The best thing about this book being our choice to read, is that you can actually currently pick it up for free on Amazon, you can check that out here. 

I would love for you all to read along with me so we can all enjoy the book together, so let me know in the comments if you are joining in! Also if you are blogger who wants to get involved then please join our Facebook group, it's never too let to pick up this book and get involved!

Bloggers Kindle Book Club: Revival!

You may remember that way back when I decided to start up a Bloggers book club! After a month it all fizzled out, mainly because I was so busy, having just moved into a new place with Tim, and starting a new job.

Fast forward to now and I am feeling 100% more settled, and am ready to pick this up properly now! That's where you come in, I'm looking to recruit more people to get involved in the book club, it's all about having fun, sharing books, and being able to have a good natter together. I'm really excited about it, and I hope you all will be too!

Here's how it should work:

• Each month everyone will suggest a book for the group to read.

• We will have a poll to decide which book gets chosen that month.

• The book will have to be under £5, and available on the Amazon Kindle Store

• 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 then please join the Facebook group!

• We will use #BKBC on Twitter, so you can follow it on there

• 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!)

So the plan is that we will start reading the next book on the 1st of December. There is currently a post in the Facebook Group, where you can leave suggestions of what book you would like to read. I have suggested that maybe we could read a Christmas themed book, but you can suggest anything you want! Then next week I will be holding a poll so everyone can decide which book they would like to read, the one with the most votes will win! Everyone will have until the beginning of January to finish the book, and then we can all chat about it/write about it together!

If you would like to get involved then please ask to join the Facebook Group, and I can't wait to get started!

Bloggers Kindle Book Club!

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!
