Book Club Nuts and Bolts

We will be reading one book a month. We will have weekly group discussions if you are interested with a final discussion at the end of the month. The new book choice for the following month will be posted at least two weeks before the beginning of the new month. You can pick and choose if you want to participate. We will have at least one giveaway each month for our readers! If you have any book suggestions, please email either Jessica or MiMi. We are in new territory, so we might have to work out some kinks as we go along. We hope you make new friends and have fun!

SPOILER ALERT
Chapters 2-5



Lexi is still in the hospital trying to piece together her life.
She looks so different but her mom is just as annoying as ever.
Chapter 5 introduces us to Lexi's husband Eric.
He's handsome, perfect and out of old Lexi's league.

Question: How would you feel finding out you had a husband that you don't even remember meeting? Would you have asked different questions than Lexi?

Okay, that was quick.
I was wondering what it would be like to meet my husband that way.
Or my kids.

    Wow, that would be weird to meet your husband like that huh? I would probably think, "Why did I marry you??" Just kidding! Sort of. ; )
    And my kids? I'd think "Wow, they're cute. But why are they so annoying?" Just kidding! Sort of. ; )
    But I could definitely stand to wake up and have lost weight and got better hair.

    super cute giveaway. i would hope i win but that NEVER happens.

    the book.... hmmm. My husband can be kind of annoying so i think it's better that I already knew him before I married him and didn't just wake up married to him. does that make sense?

    Ack, I don't have the book yet. I couldn't get the book at the library and forgot to check the bookstore for it while I was gone. I didn't read the spoiler alert in case I can find it this week.

    Cute giveaway!

    I love the giveaway stuff! I am not reading the Spoiler yet because I haven't gotten the book yet. The library has it on hold for me. Hopefully it will be turned in by tomorrow (instead of rechecked out). If you have it- I'd love it if you would turn it in! :)

    I have really enjoyed this book so far but I'll keep my response limited up to chapt. 5 :) I love Lexi's reaction to finding out she's married and that she's been leading a posh life.

    I wonder if she had been in love BEFORE the accident (with Loser Dave or whoever) would she have a different reaction - would she be heartbroken or have a completely different approach?

    I think I would be devastated to learn I was married to someone different than my last memory. NOW, that being said if I weren't married or in love prior to the accident, I'd be happier than a hog eatin' slop!

    She's really cracking me up with her comments and reactions to her ring and Eric, her Mum and Amy - the whole book has been great!
