This meetup will not have a specific book attached. Instead this event is just a general celebration of book club where we will get together, eat some food and swap books.
Also, the event is going to be a little bit trickier because it is going to be held at a fellow member's house. Since this club is partially online based, we want to make sure that the address is safely given. To ensure such, follow the steps below to attend this event.
1. Attend a book club meetup in either May, June or July. This ensures that the organizers know who you are.
2. RSVP yes.
3. Below is a list of food. Please e-mail Shannon what item you are planning to bring. This will give us a more honest count of who is going to show up to the event. Your item will be your payment instead of the regular dues. When Shannon has received your e-mail she will e-mail you the location of the event.
4. Attend :-)
I know that this is a little more complicated than our previous events but I think it will be a great time. We have enjoyed getting to know you and would really like a chance to spend some additional time together. Since this is our first non-discussion meetup, we are asking that members do not bring a guest because we don't know how many people will decide to attend and we want to make sure there is enough room for all to attend who would like to do so. If you have someone who you think would enjoy the event, encourage him or her to join our group and attend a meetup in June or July so that he or she can attend. We are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.
Also, as a bit of a book tie-in, bring a book that you have previously read and swap it with a fellow member for another book. That way, everyone hopefully leaves with a book that is new to them!
Take care and thank you Suzanne for the use of your house and for all of your ideas!

“ Fun fun fun!!! ”
“ Great time, thanks everyone for pitching in some food, it was all delicious! ”
“ I thought it was a fun relaxing afternoon. It was good to meet and talk to more people. And the book swap was a great idea. ”
“ It was superb! What a warm, fun way for our "book buddies" to get together in a venue (other Panera) discussing whatever this month's book happens to be. Mike and I so enjoyed everyone we were able to talk to and get to know better. A big Thank You to Suzanne and Anthony (and the babies of course) for opening up your home and your yard to us. You are incredible hosts and I can't thank you enough for inviting us. Julie ”
