Hi Everyone, this is Robin aka MamaFrog (long story),

Thanks to Monica and Aura for getting the ball rollin! I am enjoying the first few chapters and the way the author is conveying his inner adolescent geek.

Can we come up with a new name for the group?

I was thinking something spicy and ethnic, since all our writers will be people of color. How about CHAI time!

Holla at your girl,

Robin

Welcome!

Welcome! I am pleased to announce the inception of a book club! This is a collaborative effort that has been brewing for some time, but now this baby has birthed into fruition. With that said, we've decided on our first selection which hails from a writer from the Dominican Republic, Junot Diaz's The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao. If you've read the book already-Grand! We look forward to your participation and comments on our blog. For those who haven't read it, the deadline for finishing the book will be August 17th and we will have an event TBD during that week which will be posted on our blog. The blog will be used for discussions, questions, comments etc. about the book as well as updates on planned gatherings we'll have after completing our selections.

Happy Reading, ~Aura
