The Jan and Feb 2013 books are sitting on my NOOK shelves!
I got both on recommendation from you, Deb, and at great prices. I look forward to reading both! I have so many other books "waiting to be read" that I can easily hold off on these two until I read them with the club. (Of course, if I decide to read them before that time
I can always reread them with the group.)
Catherine, if you are a NOOK owner, grab the title now--great price!
I am harboring a deep, dark secret. I hope I don't get banned from the forum. I own an e-reader, but it is not a Nook. 
I do patronize B & N. It is the college bookstore where I work. I've been feeling guilty. It is good to get it offf my chest.

Catherine, you have been to confession and it's good to get it off your chest, you have been absolved

The House of Velvet and Glass .
It looked intriguing, the synopsis sounded good, and it had a 3.5-4 star rating. And when I scrolled down to the reviews, whose review should appear first? Deb's! -- A five-star review!
I bought it immediately. B&N owes you, Deb. This is not the first book (nor the last, I'm sure) that I've purchased on your recommendation.
Happy Wednesday, all.
I thought it looked like a good read, too. But my book budget for June is already busted. So this will have to wait. I bought the Boxcar Children Mystery series for the boys, plus a couple other books.... I am looking forward to reading these with them in the evenings.

OK, Deb absolved you. And besides, you think members of this club consider that a deep? . . . dark? . . . unforgivable? . . . secret? 
Catherine, FYI, that eleventh-letter-of-the-alphabet book store [if that's the e-reader you own] usually price matches the NOOK Daily Find sometime before noon each day.
And as the owner of a NOOKColor w/N2A card, I (have to) admit, I, too, own one (1) eleventh-letter-of the-alphabet book . But --and here's the rest of the story-- Deb (yes, Deb !) told me I could find the particular eleventh-letter-of-the-alphabet book there (because B&N did not carry that particular title in epub)!
Happy Friday, all!

Hey Mother Hen and Peeps.
I am actually sitting here...yup sitting. :-) and waiting for our group to arrive.
Just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone for making this place such a special place to come. Just like a favorite coffee house where we head to for an evening of coffee, goodies and a sharing of thoughts, idea, arguing of points of view, reading books, telling secrets, and just having a good laugh together.
This is a safe place, a comfortable place, a place where it is safe to be me, to let the guard down and really say what you think and know you will still be respected in the morning. It's a place where we can get silly and get a bad case of the giggles over the most inane things and share tears over pure fictional characters because the author has convinced us that they aren't fictional at all, but a part of each of us and that we can see a piece of ourselves in the pages of the books we read.
I visualize the wonderful place with big comfy couches and low coffee tables, and soft pools of light that invite groups of intimacy. I can hear the soft music that might ring of blues, or jazz or some other eclectic world music that sets our feet to tapping or our bodies to swaying with the rhythms and beat or leaning back with eyes closed and diving into the soulful notes that take us to faraway place.
But most of all I always know that when I click on my tab to take me to this wonderful Coffee Place, that I will always find friends here, I will always find something that stimulates my brain or stretches my knowledge and makes me want to know more. It is a place to relax, a place to learn, a place to grow, a place to always come back to...a place to feel at home.
Thank you, Deb for creating such an atmosphere and friends for helping to build upon it and make this place what it is.
Muse
Muse, I need a tissue
thank you
and thank you all for making it such a great place without all of you it wouldn't exist
