Although this is my third FL book, I have never understood how to best navigate this site.  I truly appreciate these suggestions from others who understand how to better use this site.  I'm still trying to figure out how to add a happy face.  I really am not computer illiterate.

Thanks for your insights.

Hi Kathy, I can help you with the smilie face thing. When you reply to a message, at the top of the box you are tying into there are B I U ABC | C(opy) W(paste from Word) | then the smilie icon.  Click on the smilie icon and there are the available smilies.

Hi Everyone,

I am Claudia, a 7th grade literature teacher from Cedartown, GA (we are located in the northwest corner of the state ~ 60 some odd miles from Atlanta).  I have only missed out on 2 First Look Books and I am thrilled to be back in the game after numerous computer problems during Bees and Mist that kept me from posting : ( !!!!  Let me sing a chorus of the Hallelujah Chorus that my old faithful is back up and running liike a charm now!!  I got my book on Thursday and am really looking forward to reading and discussing it before I head back to the classroom in Mid-August.  My daughter is also on board (Dleigh); I think this getting to be more and more of a family affair!!

Hi Everyone,

I'm Gail from Philly. I just got my book and I'm anxious to get started. The last one "Of Bees and Mist" was a great read. I noticed someone mentioned "Prayers for Sale." I read that recently and liked it very much.

I thought Prayers For Sale was a wonderful book. I'm glad to hear that others liked it as well.

Well I'm still waiting, but I live in the boonies so it usually takes a few extra days. Just wanted to say Hey to all the new members and all my old friends. I can't wait to start the discussion.

Hi All

Thank you Paul, I got my confirmed on July 6, and I am sorry that I didn't thank you sooner.   Since now that I am taking some college class I just haven't taken the time to email you.  Just know that I really do love  BN First Look Club.  Because it gives me a chance to read book that I would have missed reading on my own.  Please let the powers that be know that we all love this chance that they have given us to read the books before they go on sale. 

Positively,

Gail Marie

Hi Claudia,

I am also looking forward to starting the book and discussing it with everyone.  I did a book club last year and my daughter was in it too and we had a good time going back and forth.  See you in a couple of weeks.

My name is Valorie and I live in Virginia.  I am 27 years old, and am currently working on my Master's Degree in history.  I am a licensed social studies teacher, but I put that on hold to get my Master's because I want to become a professor of history.

I got Under This Unbroken Sky in the mail the day before last and am already done with it.  I absolutely devoured the book and LOVED it.  I can't wait to participate in the discussion.
