About The Book Chain Reading Group in South Jersey

Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counsellors, and the most patient of teachers.
~ Charles W. Eliot (1834 - 1926) ~

There is no mistaking a real book when one meets it. It is like falling in love.
~ Christopher Morley (1890 - 1957) ~

A room without books is like a body without a soul.
~ Cicero (106 BC - 43 BC), (Attributed) ~

Where is human nature so weak as in the bookstore?
~ Henry Ward Beecher (1813 - 1887) ~

Never judge a book by its movie.
~ J. W. Eagan ~

Oh for a book and a shady nook...
~ John Wilson (1785 - 1854) ~

When I step into this library, I cannot understand why I ever step out of it.
~ Marie de Sevigne, O Magazine, December 2003 ~

Always read stuff that will make you look good if you die in the middle of it.
~ P. J. O'Rourke (1947 - ) ~

A truly great book should be read in youth, again in maturity and once more in old age, as a fine building should be seen by morning light, at noon and by moonlight.
~ Robertson Davies ~

Some books are undeservedly forgotten; none are undeservedly remembered.
~ W. H. Auden (1907 - 1973) ~

When I read a book I seem to read it with my eyes only, but now and then I come across a passage, perhaps only a phrase, which has a meaning for me, and it becomes part of me.
~ W. Somerset Maugham (1874 - 1965), 'Of Human Bondage', 1915 ~

If you are looking for a New Jersey book club we may just be the group you are looking for.
We will try all types of genres with members sending out suggestions each month of a book to read.
We meet twice a month, once for our Non-Fiction/Series meeting and once for our Fiction/Series meeting.
We also have our Book Swap List as an additional way of enjoying more books that have or have not been on our reading schedule.
Please realize its a participation group and all members must either attend meetings or at least read the book each month and participate online.
