February's book


This month's book is Sense and Sensibility.  I chose this book because I have read 4 of Jane Austen's books already, my most favorite being Pride and Prejudice. Sense & Sensibility is one I've always wanted to read, but I just never picked up.  I've heard that the language can be kind of tough in the beginning, but once you get used to it it's good.  So don't be scared.

A little about me.  I've been married 10 years to my great husband Erik.  I am a work at home mom to my 3 great kids, meaning I stay at home with my kids, and it's a lot of work!  :) I love it though.  I am currently an exercise science major/nutrition minor who will be graduating either this summer, or fall, depending on when I can get my internship done.
Some of my hobbies include reading of course, jogging/running, any exercise, I enjoy cooking, singing, playing the piano, and just being outdoors when it's nice and warm.  I grew up in Florida & California as a navy brat.  I was 16 when we moved to Colorado where my dad retired.  

Welcome Cherrywood Sisters!

Welcome to the Cherrywood Sisters Bookclub Blog!  I thought that I would create this blog so that we can all get to know each other a little better.  Also, for those of you who have a difficult time making it to book club, but still would like to read the book and give your thoughts, you can do it on this blog.

We are still trying to work out a time each month (or every other month) to meet.  I will be posting dates and times on this blog as well.

As for structure of this book club, I thought that each sister who is interested in participating can choose a month, and pick a book for us to read for that month.  It can be church, fiction, non-fiction, whatever you would like.  I was also thinking that whoever chooses a book for the month can host the meeting that month as well.  If that is a problem, just let me know, and we can meet at my home.

One last thing...I know this is wordy.  I would like to post a little "bio" of the person whose turn it is to choose the book.  I will be posting mine just to give everyone an idea.  I know most of you probably know each other pretty well, but I am still learning names, and you never know what you might learn about someone else.

Happy Reading!
