1776
This is highly recommended. Mom said that it is great on audio format. So, either read or listen by the end of April. At the end of April i will start my analysis and we can all discuss. It is supposed to be very engaging- not a dragger. So--my friends this is the book of the month. Next month is David's turn then on up youngest to oldest. Um...I was thinking it would probably be easiest to have couples choose the book. Although if you have a very different opinion on book choice than your spouse I'm sure we can work something out. Anyway, we can work out any kinks as they arise. Thank you for doing this with me, i know it isn't every one's cup of tea so don't feel like you HAVE to do this but I appreciate those who are. Thanks.

The Hyde Book Club
Ok, So I want to start a book club with all the people I love the most- my family. Therefore, if you are here that means you! Here is how it is going to work: for this first month I want everyone to make a book suggestion and tomorrow I will pick one. Then we will read the book by the end of April. We will get on this blog and discuss it. I was thinking that maybe we would make this an every two month kind of thing(if its a super short book we could probably be just one month, that will be up to the person picking the book). Anyway, we will then start picking books from youngest participant to oldest. So, David will pick the next book and we will have it read by the end of June. So, read, discuss etc. If you have further suggestions please state them, nothing is set in stone. I just wanted to trade off picking books so that everyone gets a chance to pick one and we get a range of books. If I could have my druthers it would be my entire family- mom and dad, brothers, wives...everyone. I figure most of us read anyway so lets just read the same books and talk about them. so- suggestions suggestions suggestions. thanks guys
