So we love to read. Sometimes flashlight-under-the-covers style. It's a sweet escape.
Gals who love a good read.
We meet regularly to muse our literature, life, and of course enjoy some good laughs.
Life happens and though we'd love to be book-clubbing every night, (really we would!) we can't always be there. Here is our place for thoughts to be shared, anytime.
Church books & discussions are always welcome, however the literature we read is not necessarily sanctioned or published by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Please keep this in mind if you bump into a story or material which you dislike. We're the readers, not the writers!
