Dine and Opine

So girls, this month’s book is We Two : Victoria and Albert. How is everyone’s reading coming along? Hopefully better than mine. It has been slow -trying to following the criss crossing family lines- seems to be slowing me down. I can’t help it! the tree doesn’t branch very often and you end up reading about someone’s uncle, cousin Husband……come on!! Anyone else having a hard time?????

This month’s book is by Stieg Larsson. And although some of us have been told that the first 100 pages are slow- the story picks up! Let’s see what happens!

OK girls! Time to bring in the new year and let’s all start it off with a WOOT WOOT!! I hope that everyone picks up the book ! I am so looking forward to another year of this fantastic book club! Can’t wait for our next meeting…. ohhh and the DUNK YOUR DRUNK 2010 at Kristine’s!

Dine and Opine’s book of choice this month is South of Broad by Pat Conroy. I myself am quite interested in reading this for the sole purpose to see how Charleston is depicted in the story. I love Charleston, so I don’t want my view tainted!! LOL. I am not very far in the book at the moment. Just in the first chapter or so, however I hope to be able to dedicate a few hours to the book tonight. I thought that I was going to get ready done over Thanksgiving and our trip to visit Family…. HAHA.. boy was I wrong about that! I hope that you girls are enjoying the book. Let me know your thoughts!!

Well Ladies, I am sooo sorry that it took me a while to update the webpage (www.dineandoine.com) and this blog!! (Almost a month over due!) I am enjoying Pillars so much! It is absolutely fascinating! I can’t wait to see everyone Thursday to discuss!!!!

Let me know how everyone’s reading is coming along! I have about 150 pages left I think!

This month’s book is The Night Counter by Alia Yunis. Now girls, I know we just came back from the girls’ weekend- but let’s start chatting!!!

Hellllllllooooooooo Everyone! I am so excited that in 24 hours (well less now) we will be on our official 2nd annual Dine and Opine Retreat!!!! I hope that all you girls have finished the book…….smirking….. sorry… was this not the dullest book ever?!?! Or is it just me? I hope that everyone is ready and we will have photos up on the website after the weekend.

OHHHHH and did I mention- we have had over 395 visits to our website!!!!!!!!! WOOHOO!! let’s see if we can hit the 400 mark before we leave!! Tell your friends… forward the link onto everyone!!!!

Hello Hello Hello!! Has everyone had an opportunity to check out the new changes to www.dineandopine.com?? What are your thoughts??

Hello Hello Hello! Well after a lengthy book (shantaram 900+ pages) and a two month reading session- we finally have a new book to pick up! And even though Shantaram received an overall Thumbs up from the group… I know that there are a few of us that are just soooooo excited to be done with that reading!! LOL! So time to move forward! This month’s book is The Group By Mary McCarthy! I am so excited to her your thoughts!!

This month’s book is a BIG one (Over 900 pages!) However girls I think we can handle it! (Considering that many of us read the whole twilight series in a month LOL!) So begin reading and leave your thoughts~ I would love to see what everyone is thinking about the events in the book!
