We have 8 books on our list so far!! Thanks for responding guys.

Our Group Website is http://groups.google.com/group/gncbooks. The
list is there, as well as on the bottom of this email. If you have
more books to suggest, go there.

Our first book is Jonathan Livingston Seagull. Its' a very short
read, probably could do it in 1 sitting. It's one of my faves. if
you've already read it, its a great one to read again. I'll post up
some questions and comments on the discussion section of the webpage.

Great book, Eunice!
 
So Jonathan Livingston Seagull is our *April* book, right?

1. To clarify, our April selection will be Jonathan Livingston
Seagull (Richard Bach).
2. We need to decide a date that would be good to meet. i'm thinking
the 2nd A. Thursday/Friday of each month, we can meet for a cup of
coffee or eat food, and talk about the book.
B. The other possibility is Sundays before service.
Please respond with opinions. Hope you enjoy the book!

hey james,

how about the last thursday or friday of each month? this way people can pick up or order their books and take their time reading. speaking for myself, with work and evening classes, it would take me a little over two weeks to read a book. i think sundays might be hard for some people. they may have other obligations such as praise band practice, sunday small group, or welcoming committee.

thanks for organizing. can't wait to read the book!
