Beyond Borders!!!!
 
Hey Ladies two books that I have just finished reading! Check them out!! The Coldest Winter Ever By Sister Souljah and BLACKGAMMON By Heather Neff. This one is a must read. I am almost afraid to ask this question without forming a search first. If the answer is Yes Please send me to that forum. Are there any cyber book groups? If not anyone interested?

Put me down on the list for a cyber book club! I love to read. I know that with the summer coming up, I can finally dust off all of the books I have been "meaning" to read and finally get to it.

Hello Ladies!
This is great. If everyone could submit two book titles that they would like to read that would be great. Also Miss Nik and VctoriasSecrt could you send me your email address so that I can create a group mailing list. Also my school schedule is very light this spring and summer. I could committ to reading a book a week or should we allow more time. What are some suggestions? What are your schedules like? I take my finals next week. Wish me luck and Good luck to you too!!!

kiml122 04-19-2001 01:25 PM

I can't do a book a week. My job already requires me to do tons of reading that I take home at times. I would need just a tiny bit more time http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif, plus I travel a bit for my job.

Your Right! Any Suggestions! About the time maybe two or three weeks.

I want to join too.
I love to read, I just finished "Mama Day" by the lady that wrote 'Women of Bruster Place'. It was a good book.
I know you all have read all of E. Lynn Harris books..ok http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

Questions: is it only for Black Authors or can we pick any book? Because I love Amy Tan (Joy Luck Club) and I have to get her new book 'The Bonediggers Daughter'(I think that's the tittle)
Romance or not? Sci-Fi or not?
let a sista know

Very Understandable. That's why I have two e-mail addresses.
