June Book Club

For the month of June (even though we met on May 31 because of summer) we read Daddy-Long-Legs by Jean Webster. It was written in 1912. That means the copyright has past so if you want to, you are able to go to gutenberg.org and download it for free. I bought the book because I don't have an electronic reader and I don't like reading on the computer screen.
Anyways, its about a girl who is raised in an orphanage that ends up getting to go to college because one of the trustees says he'll pay for it. All he asks for in return is for her to write him once a month. Well, she writes him way more than is needed and this is all of the letters she writes. The book's actually pretty modern in its style and ideas for being written in 1912. I enjoyed it.

We're taking the summer off of book club but we'll get a new book picked out in August for us to 'discuss' in September.

Meanwhile, I'll be keeping myself busy by reading some retold fairytales by Cameron Dokey and listening to some classics on audiobook. (So far I have Little Women and The Red Badge of Courage checked out.)
