Welcomes and Introductions

Hi Everyone,

I just signed up for the first look book.  Hopefully I will get to read MQF!   I live in Western Kansas, work as a nurse in a rural hospital.  I have a bad habit of reading 2 to 3 books at a time! 

I'm looking forward to getting to know you all.

Hi again! I'm a little bummed out b/c I did not get an email saying I would be receiving the book - I'm still hoping that I will be able to be included for the first look club with this book - it looks great...   Either way - thanks to B&N for this great opportunity.

I'm Kathy in South Carolina and I'm excited because this is the first book I've gotten from First Look.

Hi,

I am Danielle from France, an old timer B&N book club addict.  I just got my enrollment confirmation.

 I am so glad I will get a copy of this new book which will enable me to discover an author who I never "met" before. It's like meeting someone who might become a new friend: one never knows! Amy Dickinson sounds very American to me and reading about the USA is like going on holidays for me, away from France and my daily occupations.

Thank you so much.

Danielle

If you want to see if its been read yet, just go to your pm's, check in the "sent" part, if its black, they have not read it yet, if its grey, they have. Sometimes it takes a day or so to get read. But just check it like any other private message sent and you can tell.

Hi Everyone! It sounds like everyone is as excited as I am to be in on this First Look selection. I'm an avid reader from the Great White North. I enjoy 'discovering' new authors and Dickinson is new to me1

Hello! I'm Nicole and this'll be my first First Look- got the confermation today. I've been on a memoir kick lately, so this'll be a good read for me. I'm a LTer, book blogger, and general ARC junkie.

See you all when the book talk starts. =)

Hi everyone, My name is Cindy. I live north of the USA in Canada. I am married and a stay at home mom. I have a son who is 5 years old and he just started kindergarden this month. I am an avid reader and book blogger. This book looks really good. Hoping that I am able to snag a copy. I am presuming that I will get one seeing as they are still taking names for it. Is that right? This is the first time I am doing this and I am looking forward to doing it.

[Stephanie]

Wow, we have a very diverse group here!  Welcome again to all those just coming in, and I hope you're all getting confirmation emails so that we can enjoy Amy Dickinson's book together.

How soon do you normally get the confirmation emails?

Hi,

My name is Betty and I live in Fort Worth, Texas.  This is my first time in a book club and I am really excited!

[LollySirk]

Hi, my name is Lolly (nickname, actually) and I'm a veteran First Look member.  I'm looking forward to reading this book.  I haven't been disappointed  with the choices so far even though they have been outside the arena of my usual picks. 

[Des222]

Hi everyone! I'm Jean, and this is my second First Look opportunity. I'm very excited, as I am familiar with Amy via her column in the Chicago Trib. I have two boys and work from home part time, so a break-time for reading is a welcome time for relaxation. Also, I learned so much from the last B&N book club; I'm looking forward to more "a-ha's" and "Oh! I never thought of it that way" moments from our discussions.

[Kourt]

Haven't receiveda conformation yet..... Hope I get in.....
