A few weeks ago, Ghenet and I introduced the idea of doing a Summer Reading Book Club at YA Cafe. We’ve decided our first book will be The Summer I Turned Pretty by Jenny Han and we’ll be discussing it next Friday (June 24th). Here’s how it will work:
• Ghenet and I will post discussion points on our blogs this on Monday.
• You can use the discussion points if you want, or write whatever you like.
• Feel free to post about the book on your blog and add a link in the comments, or if you prefer, just weigh in on the discussion in the comments section and through twitter (#YACafe).
That’s all there is to it! If this works, Ghenet and I have two more books in store for this summer (one for July and one for August) so we’ll continue the book club. We even have an idea for a giveaway so get excited!
Anyone out there planning on joining the fun?

I put a hold on it at the library but the three copies available are either already checked out or on hold for someone else so if I don’t have a copy by Monday I’ll have to sit out. Any chance you could email a list so those of us who have to wait on our library system can request ahead? That will increase my chances of participating.
