We are always looking for new members.  We understand discussing books with any group of people is frightening prospect (what if I sound silly or stupid?)  But we assure you, this is an open, fun bunch of readers with lots of anecdotes to share.  This is a fun way to get together once in a while and discuss what we thought of a piece we read - and YES, sometimes we have hated the book…

    There is only one word to describe this book - looooong! The story is interesting as I know little of Egyptian history. I’m only on page 191 of this 1000 page book but I plan to share what I have read so far.
