2. books... i changed my mind. you're not going to buy them. at least not from me. not unless you want to. so when you're done reading the book, please return it to me or miss helen so we can let someone else read it. and, that way, when we're all done, i can trade in our entire set at copperfield's and use the credit toward our next book! =) sound good? gr8! so, the two of you who already paid me, come see me to get your cash back. you know who you are! =)

3. donations... i've added a wish list page to our website so if you know people who want to help us, they can, and now they'll know what we need and how to get it to us. please have them contact me for more info. thank you! =)

4. next meeting... next thursday october 30th... the day before halloween... at lunch in the library... in our office... i'll try to remember to make you passes to get out of class a little early. but i'm new and so i'm not sure if this is kosher at casa yet. anyway, thursday is an a day, so it would really help me & miss helen if you please tell me or email me your full name, what teacher you have 2nd period, and what the room # is. thank you! =)

5. food... marina is baking us cookies!!! deva is bringing balloons!!! if you'd like to bring sodas or anything else, please do!!! the more the better!!! =)

ms. koval =)

 
 

So, just who are the big house book clubbers? Who would actually join a book club, you must be wondering. Well, you might be surprised! Our members are diverse in their genders, ages, ethnicities, and interests. We all have different ideas, and that makes for lively discussions. Take a look at our family photo album. Get to know us, and you just might want to join us! =)

 
 

Extra! Extra! Read all about it! Casa Grande High School's got a brand new book club! Woo hoo! =)

Yup, you've heard the rumors, and we're pleased to report that they're all true! We do have a book club! We do have members! (Like 10 of them already!) We do have advisors! (Two of them, in fact, but there'll more info about that in the next blog post!) And now we have our own website, too! =)

Surf our site and you'll see some fun stuff: pictures, polls, books, a blog, and a cool new way for you to tell us what's on your mind. Just click the TALK BACK tab in the nav bar at the top of the pageand post your comments.

Tell us what you think. Do you like it, love it, want some more of it? 

Give us ideas of what you want to read. Sci-fi, manga, romance, real life, what ever! 

And share your hopes for what you wanna do with this new book club of ours! Raise money for needy libraries, pass out books to impoverished readers, help stamp out illiteracy, or just read some not-boring books and talk about them while chowing down on the food of the gods (pizza). =)

This club is all yours! =) I'm just glad I get to help you with it! =) Happy reading! =)
