after she told me i'm rethinking my decision to join if this is the kind of books we'll be reading, i really like her but i hope she picks all kinds of book and not just this type.

4. The secret?

8. oh cheeze
that's even worse than the one i was invited to join a few months back, the book was going to be "the shell-seekers," i'm like come on, everybody who wanted to read that has already read it! and i'm not in the category of wanted to read it by a long shot

book clubs would do better if they avoided some of the little old lady books

10. I know what you mean. We're inundated with self help books.
The reason I bought it is that I'm too nosy. I just had to know what the secret was.

:rofl:

Basically, generic, good kharma attracts good kharma type advice. Nothing terribly preachy or new age-y.
