Email me about Vonnegut's book.

cailinoBAC · 30-05-2007 12:19pm

So our next meeting is 19th June. Same place as usual. New faces are always welcome. The book we'll be discussing is A Heart so White by Javier Marias. I had a look and there seems to be a copy available in most libraries (though probably just the one!)

luckat · 08-06-2007 5:10pm

Same place is where? And what time? (I may not be able to attend, what with funny work hours, but if possible...)

I won't be able to make this meeting either as I'll be away till the 20th

Keep me posted on the book you choose though, and hopefully I'll make it to the next one!

It's Cassidy's on Westmoreland St. at 8pm on Tuesday the 19th.

See ye all there

theboytaylor · 29-06-2007 4:56pm

Hey all,

Just wondering when people are up for discussing the latest book
(The Sea -John Banville), would people prefer this Tuesday coming or the one after? (or indeed any other day)

Also, anybody interested in joining us, you're more than welcome to come along

Mrs. MacGyver · 29-06-2007 6:40pm

I actually have that book so i'll give it a go.

cailinoBAC · 29-06-2007 11:30pm

Hey, thanks for posting. I kept meaning to but never got the chance. Any Tuesday is fine with me but Esmereldina can´t make this coming Tuesday and I don´t know about anyone else. So, definitely any newcomers are welcome!

theboytaylor · 01-07-2007 2:05pm

Ok so I think we'll call it as Tuesday week (the 10th). I reckon it'll suit more people.

So anyone who'd care to join us, it'll be 8pm in Cassidy's on Westmoreland St., for discussion of John Banville's The Sea.

gramur · 09-07-2007 4:30pm

Hi, I might be interested in joining yous if thats ok. Not tomorrow but maybe next time, could you let me know what book you'll be reading? If you're not already packed out of course.

cailinoBAC · 09-07-2007 11:11pm

No, we're definitely not packed out!! I think a lot of people are on holidays and the like, but we'll try to keep going. We'll post the next meeting details here. If there's any book you'd like to suggest, maybe you could send me a pm, cos I don't have a suggestion of my own at the moment!!

cailinoBAC · 10-07-2007 10:35pm

Ok, so we're hopefully meeting next on Tuesday 31st July. We decided to read the IMPAC winner 'Out Stealing Horses' by Per Petterson. Just looking at the description, I'm wondering if there will be any similarities to 'The Sea'. Anyway, new faces welcome, as always!

Pyjamarama · 12-07-2007 2:59pm

Hi folks!

Just wondering, do you always meet Tuesdays? Might try to come soon!!

Thanks!

You don't bite do you?

cailinoBAC · 12-07-2007 4:30pm

No, we don't bite!

Yeah, we generally meet every 3rd Tuesday, though it can vary from time to time. So we're meeting next as per my post above. I'll send you a pm closer to the date to see if you're still interested and tell you who to look out for!!

Pyjamarama · 13-07-2007 2:54pm

Thanks!

I just bought this today, looking forward to reading it

Looking forward to seeing some of you new people at the next meeting!

theboytaylor · 25-07-2007 1:19pm

Missed out on the last meeting (I was away) but I've a copy of Out Stealing Horses so I shall read that and see ye all on Tuesday (8pm in Cassidy's, right?)

Yeah that's it! I'm almost finished the book except I had to leave it aside for a bit for Harry Potter

Still, I'll be there next Tuesday too...

cailinoBAC · 31-07-2007 11:15am

Ok, see you all tonight at 8, and maybe some new faces?

cailinoBAC · 07-08-2007 10:39am

Hi, I don't think I can make it on 21st August. Maybe we can change to 28th August for next one? By the way, we're going to read For Whom the Bell Tolls by Ernest Hemingway, for anyone who's interested

theboytaylor · 07-08-2007 8:07pm

Yeah cool, the 28th is grand (with me anyway).

SingingCherry · 10-08-2007 7:58pm

Can new people still join up? I have been looking for a book club for a while now and didn't know this one existed!

cailinoBAC · 11-08-2007 8:45pm

Yeah, Please do! We've lost a few members along the way so newcomers are definitey welcome.

household_goods · 14-08-2007 8:04pm

I'd definitely be interested in joining. There's no initiation hazing or anything, though, is there?

cailinoBAC · 19-08-2007 11:00am

You'll just have to take a chance and see!

watna · 23-08-2007 12:59pm

I'd also be interested in joining a book club. I just saw this thread now though. Can anyone come along? Are you guys still meeting up on the 28th? I'd love to have people to talk about books with. i used to be a big reader but I've been bad recently!

theboytaylor · 24-08-2007 5:39pm

Yep anybody and everybody is welcome, we're meeting in Cassidy's on Westmoreland St. at 8 this Tuesday (the 28th) to discuss For Whom The Bell Tolls and then to decide on a new book to read. So bring suggestions everyone.

See all ye guys (old and new) then.

watna · 26-08-2007 6:01pm

Would love to join you guys on the 28th and check it out but have to work late on Tuesday. I'l check out this thread soon to see when the next one is and make sure I'm free and have read the book!

household_goods · 27-08-2007 9:50pm

Cool, I'll be there. Could someone please PM about who to look out for? Thanks.

Also, all your biometric details and bank account and credit card details. No harm in being thorough

Esmereldina · 28-08-2007 6:38pm

I won't manage to come along tonight either, but I hope you all enjoyed the book, and I'll see the new people at the next meeting
