Genevieve Cranberry Book Society

What is the Genevieve Cranberry Book Society and how can I get in? These are some questions that may be going through your mind.  Well, the answer is this.  It is a book club comprised of by Annie, Jiffy, and Me.  Our hope is for it to be a fun, exciting, rich community of like-minded readers who love the written word—from classics to contemporaries and everything in between.  This might a bit ambitious description considering we just selecting our first month of reads.  We will pick two to three books for each month and plan a date for discussion.  At each meeting, we will serve treats to complement the book. I have a compilation of foods from around the world.  Sound familiar?  I must confess, our inspiration came in part from "The Finer Things Club" on the Office.  Through a little research on the subject, I have discovered our book club suggestions should come in three categories to satisfy different reading styles.  


According to litlovers.com the monthly picks should be separated accordingly...


   A Lighter Touch: book selections that delight,
   inspire or offer hope. Use these as jumping-off
   points to share your personal experiences.

   Wonderfully Written: book selections to engage
   you on a deeper level and stimulate both literary
   and personal discussions.

   Great Works: books that have stood the test of
   time. They often challenge us with a complex,
   sometimes darker vision of humanity.


Our club has sparked an exciting new interest for reading and hopefully will encourage others that take-up the hobby.

I'm becoming more technologicaly inclined by the day!  Today my dad took me to get my very first blackberry.  In the Verizon store, I watched the newest James Bond and was in awe.  After much debat as to whether I would ever to able to figure out the little technological device, I decided I would give it a try.  My thinking was I could be completely connected to my work, friends, and family's network.  Just what I need, right? 

Once I got home, I immediately get up gmail, facebook, twitter and the work e-mail setup is still in waiting.  Not sure as to if I will be able to complete that one since I think it's going to need an enterprise activation.  The company's pretty peculiar on the access from certain devices.  As to wether this technology at your finger tips craze will be a lasting phenomenon or just temporary fix, for now I think it's pretty cool.
