What is the use of a recipe? A recipe is a teaching tool, a guide, a point of departure. Follow it exactly the first time you make the dish. As you make it again and again, you will change it, massage it to fit your own taste and aesthetic. Eventually it will become your own personal recipe - Jacques Pepin

Book Blogger Hop - June 15 to June 21
Time again for the Book Blogger Hop, hosted by Crazy for Books.
Today's question: Blogging Question: Do you belong to a book club, either online or in real life?
My answer: Quite simply, No, neither, never. I'm just not a joiner.
I am a new follower, My hop link is here http://concisebookreviewsbymichelle.blogspot.com/2012/06/book-blogger-hop-615.html
FYI your CAPCHA is on , not sure if you know that, took 6 tries, I can't see these well, finally my daughter came and helped. Audio is worse, just saying, as I didn't know mine was on, now its off.
Hi, I'm Vickie and I do not belong to a formal book club that reads the same book together bit I own and run an online book tour company so I guess you could say several of us read the same book at the same time but we each choose which of the books on tour we want to read and then write reviews on them. Stop on by at TBR http://tbr-io.blogspot.com/ and http://iobooktours.blogspot.com/ my two blogs and say hello.
@Jenna, Shan Vikieann - I do like to discuss books I'm reading or books my friends are reading with them, but that's just on a one-on-one basis. I also think that sometimes the book club thing gets a little too pretentious - it's not all life-changing literature.
Love that you're honest about not (ever) wanting to join a book club!
ReplyDeleteHappy reading & hopping!

Book clubs definitely aren't for everyone!

ReplyDelete@Michelle - I hate CAPCHA myself, but when I turned it off, I got a bunch of spam and had to turn it back on - sorry.
