January Book Club
In case you couldn’t tell from yesterday, we had book club over the weekend. Now, we use the term book club very loosely because essentially this is how we roll:
Typically, it’s a big potluck where we all stuff our faces and drink a lot of wine. And spend a ridiculous amount together. Saturday was a day of firsts for our little book club though. We had a record of (I think) 16 people attend AND we actually spend a fair amount of time discussing the book.
Another first was how long my friends stayed. The official start to this month’s book club meeting was 1:30, which meant my friends started showing up around 12:45. And stayed until….
What do you do at my apartment for 8 hours? A lot actually.
We spent some time contemplating how Sierra can look beautiful in every single picture despite being candid or posed.
We also held some competitions:
And spent some time pretending to like one another.
We took the time to admire Lindsay’s creativity with her whole toenail falling off and having to wear shoes issue:
And just when you thought the night was over, things got all weird and some supportive foam rolling happened.
Our book club is weird.
If you want to read along with us, our book for next month is Unbroken by Laura Hillenbrand. Do it and then come eat, drink, stare at Sierra, guess how long Loop Looks can hold her pee, and foam roll with us. Oh and talk about the book…maybe.
That’s all the nonsense I have for now.
Have you ever belonged to a book club that actually discusses the book (or have you only been in ones like ours) ??

I have heard great things about that book. Might just have to read next. Also- if you all haven’t done Gone Girl, get it on the list. Such an amazing book- fast read too!

Book club everyday?

Oh, you haven’t even SEEN my need to pee stance.
I actually did belong to a book club that discussed the book. It wasn’t nearly as fun.

I’m so grateful you posted that awesome photo of me. I’m fairly certain my mouth was full of food.
Man, I am sad that I had to leave so early and missed all the fun. I can’t wait for the next book club!

Unbroken is such a good book! one of the best ive read. of course, most of my other choices are more along the lines of the devil wears prada…
