The Free Book Klub begins Thursday, January 8th. The first free book will be The Whiskey Rebels and Nebulinda will be leading our group! The reading assignment will be posted on Thursday in the Free Book Klub subforum and discussion will begin the following Thursday, the 15th! Here's a link to the book:   Sign in so Nebulinda will have an idea of how many people will be reading! Betsy |

I've already started and even highlighted some paragraphs. I'm so glad we're starting this Klub now. Keeps me from charging too far ahead in Outlander.
Betsy, when can we expect the announcement?

I'm in, but I'm going to try to finish The Stand first (have about 6000 locations left) before starting. Hopefully I'll be caught up by Thursday.

Not too worried. It's 24,000 locations total, and I started it two weeks ago this Saturday, so I'm actually 3/4 done.  I typically get 1,000-1,300 locations read on my lunch hour every weekday plus a little extra here and there, so shouldn't be too bad. |

Does anyone know what the next free book and discussion is going to be and when does it start? I'm a day late and a dollar short apparently!
