I've not been in a book club yet, though I Love to read. I'd join a Christian novels club because I'm always looking for new reads.

I am not in one, but I would LOVE to be! I didnt even realize there were book clubs online! I need to look into that!
I just joined my first book club for Jane Austen. We are going to start reading Sense and Sensibility on Saturday. My book club is through Ravelry (an online crochet and knitting group).
I am in a book club. My most favorite book we have read so far is Lovely Bones. My book club is a group of girls I grew up with and we all went our seperate ways. We all recently moved back to our hometown and now get together once a month.
I love cookbooks!! I've never been in a book club, but I'm always looking for good books to read!

What a cute idea for a cookbook!! I'm sort of in a book club, though I rarely go because I never read the book. LOL. I should really start.
I love to cook and I love book clubs, but I'm not in one currently (have a new baby.) One of my favorite books discussed was Zenzele.
Thanks! I'm hthaden at gmail dot com.
I've not been in a book club before but I think it would be fun! I'd prefer it be something lighthearted or maybe a good mystery.
Thanks!
God bless,

I do not belong to a Book Club..yet!
It would most certainly be about Cooking, as it's one of my favorite things to do :)
Book clubs.. One of my favorite subjects. =) I lead two book clubs, both Christian, for my church and our former local Christian bookstore. We've done several great books in these book clubs. Redeeming Love, The Shack, The Oak Leaves, In Search of Eden, A Proper Pursuit. Obviously, I would love this!!
I love books and I love to read but I don't belong to a book club. I honestly don't know of any local to me. I'd start one up but I wouldn't know who to invite (I don't know too many people).
My favorite type of book is true crime stories.
Thank you for a fun giveaway!

Yum!
I used to be in an online book group of eclectic homeschooling moms... but we were all so busy with other things that after about a year and a half it folded. I miss it!
Thanks for the contest! chappyandalexa [at] earthlink [dot] net
I've never been in a bookclub, but it sounds like fun...I'm way too busy! Sounds like a neat book!
I"ve been in a bookclub once. It was relgious books. It moved too slowly for me,like a chapter a week. I understand they wanted everyone to be able to join, but a 50 chapter book and you're there a full year.
great idea- nope they go too slow count me in...thanks...mrs.mommyyatgmaildotcom
i would love to be a real life book club, but right now I am part of an online one which I am enjoying very much!

Yes!! I organized my own book club and we've been together for almost 2 years. It's great fun. I also write about book clubs quite a bit on my blog, BOoks on the Brain. Would love to win this and try out the recipes!

I am not in a book club and have never been. I think it would be interesting....do you have to choose a certain type of genre? I'd like to be in an eclectic one that read different types of books.

No, I'm not in any kind of book club. I do like to do online reading challenges though.
i'm not a member of a bookclub although i would totally consider a cookbook type discussion group!
please toss my name in the hat for this awesome giveaway! good luck everyone and be sure to check in at the lost world for my giveaway too!
Great giveaway. I currently host a book club for my students at school. Right now, we are reading Host by Stephanie Meyer and the kids really like it.
I'm not in any book clubs, but now that I've started my blog I may join an online club. Anyway, I LOVE cookbooks. So please enter me! Thanks!

my favorite book we read in our book club was Pride and Predjuice, my suggestion as it is my all time favorite book
I just joined a book club in the city we recently moved to so the book we're working on reading is The Kite Runner. I really like the girls I've met so far through it.
What a cool book. I am not in a book club but have thought that I would enjoy starting one when my kids are a little older. Maybe I will do an inspirational one.

Yes I am in a book club. We did the book "The Election" a few months ago. Loved it. semtaylor@yahoo.com
I used to be in a book club but it no longer meets. I enjoyed Suite Francaise - though I didn't get to go to club that month for the discussion. I would be interested in another one and this book would be so cool!

I'm not in a book club, too busy
but love to read
Oh, wow, the names of the dishes included in the recipes sounds great. I do join the ACFW book club on line with chats we do from the 20th to the end of each month. A book is voted to discuss out of probably at least ten choices, a month or so in advance to give people a chance to get the book and get it read. I'm having a hard time picking which book is my favorite to have discussed, the two recent ones that come to mind are Julie Lessman's A Passion Most Pure and this month is Michelle Sutton's it's Not about Me. Both GREAT books. There has been more before that are great too.
I am subscribed to your blog and have already made a comment on the Canning up a storm blog.

I'm not in a book club, no, but one day (when my kids are older), I'd love to join one....perhaps a book club that reads only memoirs, my favorite genre.
Thanks! This books looks fantastic.

I am not in a Book Club but my favorite book I have read lately is Water For Elephants!
I'm not in a book club, but if they had one for sci fi books, I'd probably be interested in that :D

I'm not in a book club but I do like the idea of being in one. I used to be in a mom/daughter one where we discussed the books the girls were reading. That was pretty fun actually. I think I'd like one now that read books that are currently "hot" because I tend to shop from the bestseller list most often.

I am active on Book Club Girl with Jen's on-line book club and I love it for we have an author chat each month with the author we read for the month. My fav thus far would be "Run" by Ann Patchett. I'm also in a book club here locally and our reading choices have been a little off lately.....
I'd love this book!

I am in a book club! Although, because of some of the members' busy schedules it has kind of fallen apart. My favorite book so far was Couldn't keep it to myself by wally lamb. We all had interesting opinions about it. Thanks for the giveaway!

I am in a book club with members of my mother's club. Some of the books we have really liked are The time Traveler's Wife, The Kite Runner and Lovely Bones.
I'm in three book clubs- one at church, one online, and one with friends. I loved the Jodi PIcoult books.
I am in a neighborhood book club - just a few of us. Right now we are reading Roanoke by Lee Miller (nonfiction). Just started, but so far already interesting.
We do some fiction and nonfiction, all genres.
Thanks for having the giveaway!
I'm in my church's book club. We read Christian fiction, and our most interesting discussion was about "The Shack" by William P. Young.
charlotte(dot)evard(at)comcast(dot)net
No, I've never been in a book club. I don't know if I would... I usualy read right through books so fast I would leave people behind. Maybe someone could convince me though!
