Hi everyone!

I just got my PM announcing that I'm in the club!!!! YAY!!!

I'm Suzi and I'm from Southern CA.  I've taken part in most of the First Look ARC discussions.  I always look forward to them and absolutely adore reading what others have to say.  "A Fortunate Age" sounds like a great novel and I can't wait to crack it open.  

I really look forward to "talking" with all of you.

Hi there...it's Sylvia from America's icebox...Minnesota! 

This is my second First Look book, with The Believers being the first one.  Since I am coming in sooner rather than later (like last time), I plan to be more vigilant in answering questions....and I plan on marking up my ARC.  Last time I was so very kind to it...and couldn't find the quotes I wanted when I needed to use them in responses.

Looking forward to chatting with everyone through the cold days ahead.

Happy Thanksgiving to all!

[mapleann]

Hi everyone.  I am Maple from rural Alaska. I am very excited to be part of the First Look discussion of A Fortunate Age. I had spent the last year studying early childhood special eduation and reading a lot of technical jargon. Now, I am so thrilled to be reading for sheer enjoyment rather than for an assignment.

[NaniNT]

Hi all,

I'm new to the bookclub and am looking forward to participating in the discussions. 

[Re76]

Hello, I am Renee from America's second icebox...Wisconsin.

This is my second First Look book. I also plan on marking my ARC up from the very beginning and get a better handle on the discussions this time. Thanks to Barnes and Noble for this great opportunity.
