The Big Read

Hey, any of you ever heard of The Big Read? It is an initiative of the National Endowment for the Arts. It's supposed to encourage literacy and generally make everyone excited about reading. Anyway, in my area, we're reading a book called "Housekeeping" by Marilynne Robinson. I'm going to be reading it in the next month, so anyone who wants to, get a copy and feel free to read along with me. :)

Is that where all people in a community read the same book? I think that's a great idea!!

Yeah...We just read "The Host" by Stephanie Meyer. I think that even your book club could agree to read this one...and not argue about it, Carrie!
