This is exciting!

Hey everyone. My name is Melanie and I am new to the book club. I was browsing blogs today and came across this one. I absolutely love to read--when I can find the time. The books on here look great and I am anxious to get started. Right now I am in the middle of The Host. I am a stay at home mom of three little munchkins. My oldest is 6 and starting Kindergarten (sniff) and my youngest is 2 months. I used to teach 2nd grade for 6 years before my husband finally finished school and is now supporting us. Because of my background in elementary education, I have read a lot of young adult novels. I am really trying to branch out and try adult literature! With things finally winding down this summer, I am excited to start to read and share with all of you. You are welcome to visit my blog: http://www.melandgus.blogspot.com Leave a comment so I can get to know you all more! Happy reading!

Melanie,
Went to your blog and discovered you had spent time in the grand city of Rigby, Me too.
Only then I was a "Dial"

Dials from Labelle? I was a Jones!

From you blog you looked familiar, like the family who moved in just down the road after I left home. My sibs and I are quite a bit older than you so you probably don't know any of us, but you may have had an older sib that was my baby sister's friend.

Welcome! Always fun to have fresh blood in a book club - I love getting lots of unique perspectives on reading material.

I'm Lauren and I've been MIA for like 3 months here but I've missed it dearly and am vowing to never stray again! You'll love this group.
