A mild breakthrough and something to look forward to.

I have recently started a book club with a friend. We read a book or parts of, and meet up on a specific day each week to discuss it.

My friend suggested it as a way to check in with me and keep me from isolating too much. The practice of reading is a solo show but I will be glad of the company to dissect what we are reading. First meeting will be on Saturday evening and the book we are reading is Christine by Stephen King. It was the first one we both had a copy of.

Nice! Okay you are on your way

We shall see 🤞🏻

I like Stephen king. That one scared me. He is brilliant at building tension. There are themes throughout many of his books from that time period.

[101315 in reply to Blueruth]

I read so many of his books when they were new releases but have not reread them in several decades. I am looking forward to having a goal more than the story.

What a fantastic idea !

[Starrlight]

Great idea. I have a goal too- to read Of Mice And Men with my son for school

[101315 in reply to Starrlight]

I have a few Steinbeck novels. The Pearl, Tortilla Flat and Of Mice and Men. Great storyteller.

[Starrlight in reply to 101315]

So cool! 😀

I know more about the movies made from Stephen King books than the books. Like Children of the Corn. Hope this is a good book!!!

From what I remember it is a story of an outcast .. seemed fitting at this time

The idea started from a tv show I binge watched recently. Legends of Tomorrow. The idea behind their book club was not so much about books but a way to bond or complain in a safe circle among friends.

Sounds like a perfect idea and i hope you enjoy it and most definitely benefit from it,

All the best, 🙂👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏅
