"WEDDING" by Nicholas sparks......you have until wednesday february 25th to have the book read as we will get together that day to chat about it.....

for the months to follow:
: Sandy will choose for March
: Nes will choose for April
: Dawn will choose for May
: Jules will choose for June......as new members join us they will be added to the order...if not then we will continue in this order...........

let's get reading!!!!

i am really looking forward to this one girls! so i guess some of you are wondering about the name hey??? well as you all know by now i am totally addicted to bon jovi so Sandy came up with the title from one of their songs....the song is "sleep when i'm dead" but one of the lines in the song is "Live while i'm alive , sleep when i'm dead"....way to go girl! i loved it so here it is!!! hahaha.....rather appropriate at the moment as i have been staying up late every night reading...sleep isn't really happening much...hahahaha....

so anyway the ladies who have join in so far have given me the names of some of their fav authors ( which you can see listed on the side of the blog) and from that i have made a huge list of books up.....some of them i will list here now to give you an idea of the books we will be reading.

to get us started i am going to place the names of some of these books into a draw....then i will draw names from a hat to place us into an order for choosing the books each month.....basically taking it in turns.....so here are some that will be going into the draw this month...
