Welcome to Slightly Bookish! Our book for this month will be Anne of Green Gables by L.M. Montgomery. We will be meeting at Debby Mitchell's house on August 17th @ 7pm So mark the date on your calendar, and check the book out from the library, borrow from a friend, or buy the book if you think it will be one you'll want for your own library.
I absolutely adore the movie, and, I know it is shocking (with me being a bookworm and all) but I have never read this book! I know, I know, hard to believe. That is why I am so excited about reading it. And if you are wondering about my choice of background theme and text color for the blog at the moment, well, I have the green for Green Gables, the ivy adds a nice touch of nature, and the orange is due to Gilbert's term of endearment for Anne; carrots! Gotta love that one.
Anyway, I will be changing the background each month to try and match it with the theme of the book we will be reading. Pretty awesome, huh? I thought it would be fun and that way you won't be looking at the same old boring background. And you'll never know what I'll have in store for you. :)
So, get a copy of the book if you can and get to reading! :)
Good thinkin' on the themed background! Love that idea.
ReplyDeleteI have read the book and I'm sure you will enjoy it.
ReplyDeleteThe reason I mentioned To Kill a Mocking Bird is that it is celibrating it's 50th year this year. It is very good also.
Maybe we can do To Kill a Mockingbird next???
