Esme, Alyssa, Caitlin, Stephanie and I were reading the book Dairy Queen by Catherine Gilbert Murdock for our book group and we all found it an interesting book which was also great and fun to read.
Some things that went well for our book group was that we all had something to say, even if it was just 'I think she's kind of stupid, I mean, why didn't she.....' Also everyone got along and agreed with each other or disagreed with each other in a good way.
Things I would do differently next time is to take turns speaking because at the beginning of the session we all just say our thoughts at the exact same time. I sometimes even resulted to putting my hand up.
What did I learn from this experience?
Well, I learnt that Dairy Queen was a very great book. I also learned that listening to different people's ideas about a book can also change how I see it and how it never hurts to talk about a book and how stupid the characters are.
Thanks Christine, good post.
