Shoe Addicts Anonymous week 3

As always click the link to the left to head on over to Queen of The Bookcase. It would be so much fun if more people joined the club! We are going to be picking a new books soon so you can start with us then!

Week 3 Prompt: Do you have a silly habit of buying a certain item? Write about it, and let us know which character you think would share your habit. And as always write about how you are feeling about the book.

I'm really bad at buying books and used to be bad about buying purses (that has calmed down a little). But I'm really bad with books. I dream of one day owning a house where I can have a small library. And like I tell my husband, I can't have a library if I don't have the books! I could see Joss having a lot of books. Mostly to distract her from her job.

I'm not really loving the book. It's alright, but it lacks. I find most of the girls to be doormats and I hate that! Come on ladies, grow a pair already!! It's strange that we are over half into the book and I STILL have no idea where the story is going. I have a feeling that it's going to go and then, bam, right at the end everything gets resolved in a crazy way. H will leave her husband, J will quit her job, L will get some amazing job that makes her tons of money and S will fall madly in love with the dude that calls her just to talk.

Decent weekend read. But I don't think it's one I will read again.

Shoe Addicts Anonymous week 2

Click the link to the left to head on over to Queen of the Bookcase and join in on the book club fun! We are only on week 2 so it would be easy to get all caught up!

Week Two Prompt: How do you think the meetings are going so far? Is there anything about the book that is frustrating you about the group? Do you still favor the character that you chose last week, or have you switched to someone else?

So far, the meetings aren't doing much But no one has bought any new shoes so I guess they are working in a sense. I have no idea where the meetings are going to go in the book. Maybe it won't be about the meetings as much as them coming together as friends.

I still like Lorna and she's grown on me even more as I read more of the book. If it wasn't for Jocelyn being such a pushover I think I would LOVE her....but she needs to grow a pair.

Shoe Addicts Anonymous week 1

I'm in a few book clubs. One of them is an online(blog) book club. It's the first week...so if you want to join in head on over to Queen of the bookcase and get on it!

.

Our first book is Shoe Addicts Anonymous by Beth Harbison.
..

Each week we are given a number of chapters to read and a prompt to discus it!
..

Week 1 Prompt: Choose your favorite character so far. Go online and find a shoe that this character would wear and explain why you chose her and that particular shoe.

.

So far I don't really have a favorite. I like them all for different reasons.

.

At first I hated Lorna. She was way too deep in not caring about her financial state.......but she's really grown on me! She works hard as a waitress but blows it all before knocking on her debt.

.

I could picture her buying these just for the name and saying "they're black, I can wear them with anything" while trying her hardest to justify it in her head.

I think she's going to grow a lot in the book and I'm excited to see what she learns from all of this!
