eyeseebooks Posted October 1, 2015 Posted October 1, 2015 Hi everyone I've been looking for a friendly, active, online book club for a while and at last I've found you! Having recently moved house, and whittled down my TBR pile in the process, my shelves are now very manageable. Kindle is a completely different matter with hundreds of books jostling for my attention, but as the cover is closed most of the time I very easily forget they're there. I see most people have 2015 threads - would it be appropriate for me to start one too, even though we only have three months left of the year? I have a three month plan! Quote
frankie Posted October 1, 2015 Posted October 1, 2015 Hello and welcome to the forum! I've recently moved, too, and it made a dent to my To Be Read -pile You're totally welcome to start your own 2015 reading log, the more the merrier! Quote
eyeseebooks Posted October 1, 2015 Author Posted October 1, 2015 Thank you both for the welcome! Quote
chaliepud Posted October 1, 2015 Posted October 1, 2015 Welcome to the BCF eyeseebooks, I look forward to seeing your reading log. Quote
eyeseebooks Posted October 1, 2015 Author Posted October 1, 2015 Thank you chaliepud - I'm working on it! I've had a look at your reading log and love the idea of having a book box/jar. Have you ever felt disappointed with the random selection and sneaked it back in and drawn another? Quote
chaliepud Posted October 2, 2015 Posted October 2, 2015 Oh, maybe on the odd occasion! I mainly use it for inspiration when I don't have a good idea what I'd like to read next. The kids like choosing a book out of it for me, they usually ask me what books I would like them to pick out, and then laugh when it doesn't come out and I groan at what they have selected! Quote

eyeseebooks Posted October 11, 2015 Author Posted October 11, 2015 Hi eyeseebooks. Welcome to the forum. Thank you, bobblybear. I don't have much of a TBR but suspect it's going to get much bigger fairly quickly after reading the reviews on here! Quote
