Book Club Poll

[cambury108]

Me and owlishbookish are breaking down the book. Since there would only be 3 Monday's available in February to read this book we need to decide if we want to start on the 9th like talked about and run into March, Up the 1st reading and have the book discussion on the 2nd or move book club off of Monday's. I would most likely suggest Saturday if we moved it. The 1st Saturday we would talk about it would be the 7th. 


What do you ladies think?

We had selected up till the last page of the section Target Practice that is in Pt 1. Online it was telling me 117 pages, so I thought it was a good chunk but apparently in the actual book its only about 46 pages.

Bumping so people see it as they long on for the later part of the day.

I just picked up the book yesterday, so I'm fairly sure I can get the first section done by Monday.

[cambury108]

The poll closes tomorrow at noon, Its looking like the option to discuss the 2nd is going to win at least for right now.

[owlishbookish]

cambury108 Would you like me to post the chapter and equivalent number of pages?

That would be great. Thanks! 

[owlishbookish]

Okay. Over a 4 week span, we would be reading the following:

Week 1: 18 chapters, equal to 96 pages in the hardcover
Week 2: 19 chapters, equal to 93 pages
Week 3: 16 chapters, equal to 100 pages
Week 4: 20 chapters, equal to 98 pages

I'll include the chapter titles in a moment when I'm back at my laptop.

[cambury108]

I know when you look at the # of chapters it is like WOAH but some of the chapters are like 2 pages I have been informed. So pay more attention to the # of pages. That way you don't get overwhelmed ladies

[owlishbookish]

Here are the chapter titles we would be reading through each week:

Week 1: read to the end of "Opening Night I: Inception: London, October 13 and 14, 1886"
Week 2: read to the end of "In Loving Memory of Tara Burgess: Glasgow, April 1895"
Week 3: read to the end of "Retrospect: London, November 1, 1901"
Week 4: read to the end of "Bons Reves"

I have already read thru Target Practice. I am refraining from reading anymore because I want to see what we end up doing Book Club wise but OMG I want to read more of this book. I am hooked. It is SO good!

I think I'm going to try to join you. So, The first 18 chapters by February 2?

That's what it's looking like.  The poll isn't officially closed yet, but February 2nd is winning by a pretty wide margin.
