    Same here. Unless I got to the library but that's kinda far...

    I hope you didn't think I was accusing you. I was just wondering.

    Is there consensus about what is this month's book? Once I can figure out what y'all are reading I'll join in.

    Okay- just ignore me :doh: I've found the sticky for May...
    I'll hunt it down and read along!

    Welcome, Shannon. We really haven't started to discuss Papillon, yet. I, myself, still need to pick up the book from my bookstore. I am hoping to do that tonight.

    Thanks for the welcome --I had posted some last year--but got lost in the crawling baby/ early toddler land of baby#5....and had to choose short, generally uncomplicated books to read.

    I'll ask my husband if it's stashed within our towering boxes of books, and if not then I'll either have him grab me a copy from work (he works for BN) or I'll get it from the library.

    You are welcome... Congratulations on the baby! I certainly understand time constrictions and distractions leave little time to read. I recently took a hiatus as well, but only because I was lost and didn't know where to go from there.

    I ordered mine from a lbs, and got it with in three days... not bad. I am reading the Hunchback of Notre Dame right now.. only 200 pages till I am done... then I will start reading this month's book.

    Thanks You'd think by this point I'd have it all down --but it gets more complicated because I have to keep up some semblance of homeschooling my olders.

    Stupid library didn't have a copy- so I'll have my husband grab a copy for me on pay day.

    Ah, well.. I kept to my promise. I picked up Papillon tonight on my way home from work. However, I still have about 200 pgs to go on Hunchback. I probably won't start on it till the weekend.
