Book Club! Click here for info and to sign up!
I'm going to...
I'm going to start one book club for the Chatterboxers who love to read.
After I finish my book, What Katy Did, I will start a book club for it that will allow Chatterboxers to read along and join in some fun activities while they read. If you have not read this book, read it with us and follow along in the book club. You may also join if you have already read the book, but please don't give any information away.
So if you want to sign up, sign up by Sunday, December 1, 2013. To sign up, just comment below "I want to sign up". A comment in reply to yours from me will be used to confirm that you've signed up. A list of the first 10 people who have signed up will be posted Monday, December 2, 2013. Please check that list to make sure you are in the book club. There is a limit of 10 spots for the book club, so sign up now!
I will try to finish my book next week, and start the book club Saturday, December 7, 2013. Assignments for book club members to complete will also be posted below. If the book club will cancel for any reason, I will say so in the comments.
Here is the main info:
Book we will be reading: What Katy Did by Susan Coolidge
Signing up starts: Saturday, November 9, 2013
Signing up ends: Sunday, December 1, 2013
List of the people in book club: Monday, December 2, 2013
Book club begins and will be posted: Saturday, December 7, 2013
I am unsure when we will be finished with the book. The actual book club will be posted December 7 in a different post. If you want to stop the book club when you have already signed up, please let me know!
Be sure to ask any questions below. I will answer any questions promptly.
This is my first book club, so I am unsure on how this will work out. I hope it will be a successful book club!

I'd love to sign up! I can't wait to read What Katy Did once I can get it!
Also a note: I might not be able to get all the books because my library system is very unpredictable and likes to not let me get the book I want when I want it. Like I want the Mark of Athena and there are 76 copies in the system but just then, just because I want one, there is none avalible. Yeah, it's mean like that. ;)

@ Corina: Thank you for signing up! Remember, we will be reading the book in book club, so don't start reading yet until the book club has started.
Note: Book club begins December 7, so be sure to have the book by then if you can! :)

**BOOK CLUB UPDATE**
So I just posted this yesterday, and I've already got 4 people signed up in the book club! I said that there would be 10 spots available, now there are only 6 spots available!
If I quickly gather up more before December 1, then the book club might start earlier than I said. That's if I gather up more people before December 1.
If I get more people, then the book club might be posted before December 7, which is when I said book club would start. I'm actually hoping to start earlier so that it will give you guys some leeway to spend the holidays with your family.
So spread the news about the book club, and maybe we can start it early! :)
